RE: Adding another O2 sensor

["Marteney, Steven J." <smarteney@xlvision.com>]

I kinda started drawing the conclusion that they were indeed pretty good
when switching.  It's a rather clever solution to get a non-ideal product to
work, and work well.  I've been banging on the list about AFR and O2
inaccuracies thinking that my car is lying to me.  Still investigating.
Went through all my Diacom data since day 1 and the calculated AFR is
consistently 12.5:1 +/- 0.3.  The interesting thing is the calculated AFR is
gradually rising as the gas mileage also rises.  I'm going to attempt this
weekend to do the same highway test on my friend's bone-stock IROC (with a
new MAF sensor.)

Still playing!

They are at least as fast if not more so then the oem ones.
Remember the ecm is shooting for a 14.7:1  AVERAGE, do it hammers things
real rich and lean.
The oem one's ******errors****** is when folks try to read them as a WB.
They develope cross counts at the same rate as the oems, from what I can
see.
At the Powwow we had a scope on the WB and you could see the individual
cylinder firings, and how they swung rich lean.
