Air fuel Guage install problem
i recently installed an air/fuel gauge in my 86 n/a an i can't seem to geta reading on the gauge. It does light up the last two bars for a second. I have a new o2 sensor also. The power and ground are connected under the dash an fused in with the fuse box, an the signal wire ti the o2 sensor wire right off my header. Am i connecting to the wrong source?? any info will help.. thanx

i have one hooked up as well but mines wierd, the more throttle i give the car the richer it runs acording to the meter. if im driving and holding the throttle at 3000 rpms, it will slowly move on the meter down from stoich to lean. when i get on it, it will move back up to rich (slowly) i need to tune it but could i have other problems (ie bad o2 sensor??) also if i hit my hazard lights, the guage blinks closer to lean on each tick of the hazard light and back up after it turns off. could that just be interferance in the wire? thanks

oh you didnt know. if there is something similar to someones question but not exactly they should start a new thread even if its old. but when you do that you get flamed to search for old threads to see if it answers your question, which is now answered. basicly your fuxored either way so wtf is the point of the GD forum?

Anyhow, since you've already posted...

thanks i appriciate your help (and i failed elementary spelling) i bought the car with the guage hooked up, so i didnt know how it was hooked up and ill look into where its wired and what not. ill definetly have to change the o2 sensor.
oh btw the guage does not move back and forth at a constant rpm. it just sits at one place and if i dont give it any more fuel, it slowly begins to move towards lean.
thanks again
