temporary oxygen sensor
has anyone ever installed a wide band oxygen sensor for tuning purpose only? I was thinking you could install one to tune the car and then just plug the hole with a plug when you were not using it.

The Colorado Corvette Crazys has jointly bought an LM1 unit and Lars has been welding bungs in the "members" cars. Of the handfull of cars tested so far, two have been right on and the others need some adjustments. One '69 tripower is rich on cruise, but that involves removing carbs to get to the jets. Stay tuned.

We are just sampling one side with the welded in bung. I guess you could check both tailpipes with that attachment. Checking just one side is not perfect, but certainly close enough for our purposes.
