nate: the O2 sensor output voltage is checked while connected, in normal closed loop operation. the high value of 0.9 V would be expected for rich mixture due to open loop, or limp home mode, with sensor disconnected. efi requires output from O2 sensor to optimize mixture. dan On Tue, 15 Mar 2005 05:31:01 -0800, Nate Saylor <nates@IMPULSE.NET> wrote: >As my saga goes on.
