wide band or narrow band afr gauge

T4Rick · Nov 16th, 2010, 20:54

which one would you choose and why.

Wideband. If you are bothering with measuring the AFR, it tends to be for a requirement, on a performance engine.

And if you are going to measure it, a wideband will give a more accurate and stable measurement, and does not vary due to a change in temperature. Costs more, but doesn't everything - lol?!

Tony - go and just give it a rest unless you want to help... Are you going to recommend narrowband? No, thought not.

What's up mate, are you not in the position to comment on why you reckon an AFR gauge is only requirement for performance engine.

And as for helping..I can see how your recommendation is helping...
