I am looking to try and do some of the more basic stuff to my FD by myself instead of payign some high prices mechanic. And of course the pride of it....anyways, here's my Q. Tomorrow my mission is to install an A/F gauge and Boost gauge. I have them both in right now. I took a quick look today at what the directions had to say but am A little confused. First, on the A/F gauge it says to connect a wire to the wire between the O2 sensor and ECU. Where is the O2 sensor and what does it look like? Other than that the A/F gauge is easy. But on the boost...3 Q's here. 1) which vaccuum line should I attach the boost reader to? 2) The gauge came with a white replacement vaccum hose...how do I attach this hose to the vaccum hose, keep the vaccum hose attached to wherever it is going and run the replacement hose back to the gauge? It baffles me 3) where the replacement hose goes into the gauge, it backs out with a small pull, will the vaccum suction hold it in or do I need to manually put something there so the hose doesnt back out? Sorry about these random Q's but it is just the probs I ran into today while checking it out. Thanks for the help!

 

02 Sensor is screwed into the downpipe or precat (whichever applies to you) The other end is pluged into a connector near the firewall behind the UIM.

Hook a vacum lineup to any of the nipples on the UIM that you are not using. And then drill a hole in the firewall and run the line in there and into the nipple on the back of the guage.
Very simple install. If you have any problems, sell you car because it doesnt get much easier than that
Good luck.

 

Thanks for your help. I am slowly learning and reading about this car. One reason why I cruise the forums so much. So with occasional posts on here along with my current studying I should be able to get some of the basic stuff done. Everybody has to start somewhere huh?

 

You got it.
Keep on keepin on.

 

Jesus H. Christ dude, put some white space in there! Your post is long, and it would be easier to read if you made different paragraphs and used spacing Just a tip, I'm not pissed
