CIS tuning

[Cody Forbes]

All narrowband oxygen sensors, like the stock one in your car, operate in the 0-1v range so yes that will work.

Essentially speaking, most of what you are doing is meaningless. You can't really change the fueling characteristics on this car.  You can verify things are or aren't working correctly, but there are other methods for that too.

For now, I just removed the existing O2 sensor, replaced with the gauge's sensor and fired up the car.  First, it was running very rich, until it warmed up.  Once warm, the mix would be around 14:1 at idle, but would get very lean at higher rpms, up to 17:1.
