On an electronically controlled fuel injection engine that has not been tuned it tells you nothing you need to know. It is a waste of space... On a tuned engine, and engines on carburettors then they are helpful - so just ignore it. | |

the air fuel ones are usually a couple of wires .one of which just has to be soldered to the lambda wire | |

Again, you will have to plumb in a sensor if your car doesn't already have one, or the one fitted is not compatable with the gauge. But why? | |

Unless you are running carbs there isn't much point. They require you to weld an independant lambda sensor into the exhaust manifold in most cases then it's just wiring it in - i'm not sure if you could use the OEM lambda sensor for one of them ones, but if you were to use the Alpha lambda gauge then you can't... | |
