Air/Fuel Meter
There was a user in this forum that gave a link to his online rotary shop... I found a cheap (approx $39.95) digital air/fuel meter on that site... I left the shop and never found my way back... If anyone knows what the link is or a similar link, it would be greatly appreciated if it where posted again in this thread... I tried searching for it for about a month now... You would be surprised at how many links come up for Air/Fuel... Or maybe not...

Whats the difference between the two...? I just get crappy gas mileage and I think that an air/fuel adjustment may be the key... When I bought the car it got about 6.5 mpg... It is now to 12.75... So anyway... I am rambling... What is the difference? I just want something for a one or two time use so that I can adjust it and be done...

using a narrow band a/f gauge is kinda like a deaf guy going to a rock show, or a blind guy "watching" a striper. you get the idea but the majority of the show is lost to you. get it? like the rest have said narrow band a/f gauge = shat

You gotta love the uniformed responses here...
It's not "useless".
The AFR gauge will tell you if you're grossly lean or grossly rich.
Don't try to fine-tune with it.
It will tell you if you're in trouble either way.
With an EGT gauge and an AFR gauge, I can tune both fuel and ignition, while the wide-band guys are scratching their heads.
Useless?
Hardly...
BTW, Summit Racing sells their version for under $30.

Like Ted said a narrow works fine for letting you know if you're too rich, too lean or in closed loop. BTW, I've been running a narrow band for 6 years. To me it's just basic protection like any other gauges you would add like water temp and oil temp/pressure. If you are tuning your own car a wide band is prefered by quite a few people.
