55757, Corbin's A/F guage not reading right? Posted by DSMRoadster, Sep-08-03 07:59 AM
Those who have it, do you guys have problems with it not reading right? Sometimes at WOT it would read right. But the majority of the time at WOT in 2nd-4th it read's in the .1xx or even .0xx. I'm just wondering if some of you are expeiriencing this too. Also I'd see boost a lot of times, but won't feel it until seconds later. But I bet that problem is from my stock exhaust.

Check over all the connections very carefully, of course. Or, perhaps you are running pig rich for a second. If you run WAY rich, you will drown the sensor and it will read 0.0X-0.1X. Then it takes time to clear the sensor off and it will read fine. It generally happens if you punch the gas real quick on a poorly tuned car. You get a flood of fuel and it takes a second to clear and get running right.

I think that is what's causing my misfires also. It just happened. I was getting out of class and punched it real hard all the way to 12psi in 1st gear and next thing you know, at idle it starts stuttering and the cel 43 pops up. I think I may be flooding my system sometimes. This shit is pissing me off.

Mine has never worked right. It reads 1.3xx at WOT. I used a wideband on the dyno to get it tuned. According to the wideband the A/F is good, so I don't know why the one in the car is reading wrong. Jesse

Dude...if it reads 1.3XX at WOT, then something is wrong. Its either hooked up wrong or its broken. If I sold it to you, I'll fix it. If you made it yourself, better double check the assembly.

Corbin, I bought my A/F guage from another member which bought it from you. Mind does not work at all. I've had it sitting in my car for about 2 months. Its intsalled right...it lights up and NO numbers show up. I havnt got to look inside it cause I dont have a screw driver that fits in those small holes. If I dont figure it out soon, can I send it to you so you can check it out? I bought it from 420Avenger.

Make sur eyou have it grounded to a GOOD ground. There's a good ground right to the left of the steering column behind the blank panel. Ground it there and you should be ok.

Its hooked up right. I have tried grounding in 3 different places. Yes it is one of yours Corbin, I bought it off of another board member who had never used it. I am not to worried about getting it fixed I am planning on selling the car once its back together, thanks though. Jesse
