4854, LAST QUESTION ON A/F guage !!!!
Posted by E_ME_2, May-10-01 02:02 PM

Ok so im guessing that whatever the last bar is that lights up on the guage is what you are actually at ??

And Im worried about running too rich...thats how my previous engine blew....

Well when im cruising two green lights come on, and when I boost anything from 1-7 lbs.....the guage lights up the greens to about the middle of the rich word....is that too rich ??

Oh when I rev my engine in neutral the guage lights up almost thru the whole "RICH" word...is that normal ?

Please someone respond.

i was told the ecu is constantly changing the air fuel mixture so the lights should actually bounce back and fourth. It should be at rich when at WOT and it should go lean if you are driving and take your foot completely off the gas. thats cause the ecu leans the air fuel mix to help slow the car..........just my 2cents...you have a turbo so i assume it will be different for you...

I dint know engines can blow from being too rich...I think it is the other way around? Too lean = Boom
