Thread: Installing guages, need some hints tips.

Thanks Bio! Thanks a good chunk of info, it will be a big help when I'm installing my gauges.

1) I think i figured out my answer, i believe i need to purchase the sender for the electrical oil pressure gauge (1-100 psi). Then i need to attach the Oil Press sender wire (left on diagram) to the sender. I believe this is the sender i need.

B) Answered

2) Answered

3) Answered. Going to buy the pigtail from ZZP (its cheaper)

3B) I now know the difference between a wideband and naroband o2. I also now know i cannot use my narrowband guage with a wideband o2. Is a narrowband o2 gauge ok or should i really go for the wideband?

4) Answered. I also found a really good write up on connecting it to the interior lights and the dimmer switch.

5) Answered.


If anyone can help with the remaining questions it would be appreciated. Thanks

a narrowband is usually a waste of money, but i have found one use for them: a few places sell modified A/F gauges. they only read from .800mV up which makes them good for WOT tuning. no narrowband will ever stand up to the usefulness of a wideband though.

I got it for free so i guess it will just make pretty lights on my gauge pillar lol.

I dont have a tuner anyways so even if i had the whideband i wouldent be able to do the necessary fine tuning.

The Narroband would be able to tell me if i had a problem tho right? I suppose i am most concerned about running to lean, would the gauge i have let me know? or would problematic emissions be outside of the gauge range?
