I had a little free time to day so I decided to add(weld) the O2 bung to my Bursch exhaust

wide band O2 is now ready to go....

Excellent spot!

The only times I've had O2 sensors screw up was at idle (as pbanders mentioned) but that was running the sensor (5 gas none the less!) at or near the tail pipe opening.

The exhaust can run negative pressures and actually suck air UP the tail pipe.

That muffler just past the sensor will stop that from happening!

Now, ANY exhaust leak can have the same result, you just notice the dilution more at idle /low flow conditions.

In my book the most important gauges to have are oil pressure, temp (for the 914 a CHT!), and the wideband.

I'd fix a wideband before I fixed a tach...

Even if you cannot adjust your system, you will know something is wrong!
