Hey hey... I need some suggestions. I went for a nice drive last nite. I have a AFR gauge that has not been working. But the PLX Devices system has a blue tooth transmitter so i can review the live data on my phone.
I was getting 10.5 A/F reading. It did jump to 12.5 as i went to neutral and coasted to a stop. To start with, I was thinking i would pull the sensor and take a look, maybe clean it up and re-drive. Any ideas about the 1st steps? The car seemed to run fine. I will need to look them up here, but years ago I had a reply from, I believe, Mark Henry that gave me the following: 13.5-12.9 while accelerating of climbing 12-8-12.5 at WOT 16-17 going downhill or decelerating. 1911 cc L-Jet. I did tweek the AFM back in the day. 62,000 miles ago. the link to the 5 page post from 2017 |

On my last build I had similar issues - turned out I needed to add a fused (small glass tube, 250Ma I think) wire to the heater input of my Lamda processor (brand 14point7 btw), that was not included with my kit for some reason. I added it, and it immediately corrected.
