Will an A/F gauge make me happier, or will it drive me nuts?
The 914 is carburated, and it runs great. But still have explosions in the tail-pipe when engine breaking. To add to the drama, 90% of these tail-pipe explosions occur under freeway-overpasses. Whats the verdict on the Gauge Yes or No? Thanks in advance. |

It probably wont drive you as nuts as a head temp sensor gauge does but may be more usefull to have installed when you are having running issues. If you dont mind the look where you have it installed I would probably leave it in.
Probably more usefull on a carb'd car where mixture can be easily tweaked and issues can be addressed at side of the road. |
