HOW TO: Install A/F Guage

This is a general "How To" on installing an A/F guage. -

Tools needed:

*18 Guage wire
*Wire Nuts/Electrical Tape
*Wire Stripper
*Drill
*X-ACTO Knife
*Patience

1. Start out by routing the RED wire from your A/F guage to a +12V ignigion supply
(a very easy tap would be to your ACC line on your car's CD head unit).

2. Route the black wire to a good ground connection and secure tightly.

3. The third wire will be the one we use to tap into the O2 sensor. You will need to drill a small hole in your firewall to route the wire down through your engine bay and back to the O2 sensor (I drilled mine right below the throttle cable). Be careful the wire does not get too close your your exhaust piping! For this step I did a "cheater" way if you are leary about actually splicing or cutting anything. You want to pull the sleve cover back and then shave the insulation off the BLUE wire of your O2 sensor. Once you have a good inch of wire exposed wrap the last wire (that you routed) from the A/F guage around this exposed portion and tape up tightly to prevent moisture. Slide black sleeve that cover O2 Sensor wires back over and your done.

Couple notes on this. It's for a narrowband A/F meter, not wideband, and you dont' need to drill a hole in your firewall. There are already many holes there stock for us to use.

Discuss here.
