2.4L with A/F Ratio Gauge? POST!

[chump963]

i was wondering where your a/f ratio gauge is when you get on it and normal driving?

why i ask is that mine almost always reads from nearly full and full rich exept when i deaccelerate. i dont think that should be right. i think i might have a bad 02 sensor

Sounds normal to me.

WOT = pegged rich
Decel = pegged lean
idle = bounces all over

You are simply seeing the limitations of narrowband O2 sensors.

I know narrow band isn't precise but my AutoMeter atleast shows whether or not your running lean or rich. I know when I punch the gas it goes into rich,not all the way though,just to an extent,when I decel it goes a little more rich but then goes back down.

This is normal activity for narrowband A/F ratio gauges

yeah if you want ACCURATE results you need a wide band o2 setup... i'm running Innovatives' wideband o2 setup... cost is about $395
