finally into the computer and tuning stage but am having trouble getting a consistant reading from the Innovate Air / FUel gauge. It seems to jump around in random positions, not at all related to actual driving situations. Any ideas??

Is this the one with green and red colors that just goes left to right all the time?

He means is it a wide-band or narrow band? Did you have to ADD an O2 sensor for it, or are you depending on the stock one? Stock one is narrow and tells you almost nothing.

Wide band with new o2 sensor but solved the problem by getting a digital gauge. Still not sure why the other jumped around though.

I am really looking forward to meeting you guys. Do you ever get together for a little coffee and car talk, or when is the next auto X?

If you give JustinL your email he can put you on the list to be notified of our next PCA event, should be early July.

Send me a PM with your cell number and I'll send you a text next time we do a coffee, usually they're on a Friday evening at the Tims/United Cycle on Gateway Blvd.
