    is it better to hook a a/f gauge straight to the O2 sensor or the ECU and what wire the white on O2 or the A6 pin on ecu? is that correct?

    Get a wideband. Waste of time and money with one of those narrowband light show gauges. You couldn't pay me to put one of them in my car.

    Best thing to do on a simple setup like that is run it on a waistgate spring or manual controller and tune it on chrome "chippable" ecu

    94 integra... got my cat taking out due to clogged up very badly and needed a new muffler as well, now have a pretty good muffler and pipe where the cat was. a bung was put there for the o2 so all that is good i assume. I am getting a code 41 sometimes after the car heats up. code is a o2 heater sensor according to the blinks. I am trying to troubleshoot but cant figure this out. Thanks.

    You probably need one of those adapters to screw into the o2 bung and then screw the o2 sensor into. It makes the o2 sensor think there is a cat there still.

    The control "valve" in the engine compartment is a simple solenoid, bro. You should be able to pop 12vdc/LO to it and hear it go wide open.

    Need help! Car stutters and bogs under mild acceleration no matter what rpm I'm at or what gear I'm in. Calibrated tps and it was at .60 at closed throttle. I set it to .49 at closed and it read 4.55 at WOT. not sure what to do now. Idles perfect but could it be the throttle body or iavc. Thanks

    you need to check actual pressure, it takes an adapter, which i have at my shop, to test it... if the fuel pressure or volume is low, then it can cause your symptoms because the car is just not getting adequate fuel... call me at the shop to set something up... 706-563-1210, jimmy

    Thanks. It seems it does get the right amount but only if I'm quarter throttle or more. I will check fuel pressure tomorrow and see what's up. Thanks again for your help.

    dont seem like fuel pressure to me only does it low rpm. once in the gas good it clears out and runs fine with way way way more fuel then it needs. i think it still tps told you u should of took it off made sure who ever put in on moved the little plastic peice to the stop where it goes. or some other sensor would be my guess. the tps is made with revits so it wont get messed with why do peopel keep messign with them. i know it was like that when u got it but just in general people stops drillin them out and change the load on stock stuff. i can see if you buy a aftermarket tb.
