hook it up at the ecu...I dunno what pin it is on an obd1 car but in 4th gen civics its pic c16 on the ecu (white wire with pink stripe)

I hooked up mine the other day and its suprisingly accurate and doesnt bounce around as much as people say it does. when cruising it stays within the stoich section, at full throttle it goes rich and on decel it goes towards the lean side and back in stoich area

its fun to look at too LOL

When did you get a b18c1?

I guess this would explain why you're selling your DIY T-Kit.

white wire (might have a black stripe) from the sensor or ecu pinout d14 (b-blocks)


o/t but a/f gauges are so ricey
They're useless other then a cool christmas time decoration.

Should look into getting an EGT gauge, or a real afr gauge like greddy's.

Hook it upto the ECU like everyone else said. If you decied to hook it upto the o2 directly, do not cut the wires between the sensor and the harness connector, bad thing too do. cut and splice between the ecu and harness connector.
