I wired up the O2 and the LM-1 with a new Tach channel (I need a TPS for throttle position/load next)
I think this a a cruise speed , with a little more throttle in near the end. The full stop (3/4 to wot)seems to be about 12.1 or so ( I am liking that ok) NOT SEEN ON THIS SESSION MPS looks lean on cruise/ part load Head temp gets hot on light cruise about 60 MPH This tool seems to have a lot of features for the $$$ and still works well for being so OLD! Maybe some decel/over run here too on the graph, I need t make notes on the recordings, not EZ for 1 person that is the driver. |

15.8 would bug me. I'd prefer 13.8-14.5 cruise and I'd want to know if 13.8 reduced cylinder heads temps versus 14.5.
3/4 throttle I'd want 12.5 or lower, once again I'd be looking at temp data here too. In my book 16 is "lean burn" beginning. On a water-cooled engine I'd want port injectors, modern digital FI, COP, and knock sensors. I would not be looking for power here, just fuel economy. I wouldn't run 16-1 on anything built in the 70s without fully updating everything and I'd still be more conservative and lean towards the rich side of things. |

I integrate O2 data that I capture on my PC with 123+ Distributor data captured on my phone simultaneously . You have to have the blue tooth version of the 123. Using time stamps form each source I can connect the data. I chart it and can see where I go lean and look at the other variables for why... and can make tweeks to the MPS from there.
Just another option to fill in the picture using data. |

Set your redline mixture for 13 or 13.5
Then mid range Too lean right now. |

Thanks for the tips everyone....
I made the first adjustment, only took 15 minutes tops! Some time today I record and cruise/ part load and 3/4 load. Ill use 4 th gear for this run for the new base lines Fingers Crossed |
