They work well and in my opinion worth every penny if you are going to tune your carb or carbs for best performance and mileage.

I don't watch it all the time, but I check it regularly especially if anything out of the ordinary happens. I also log ever-so-often just to get a close look at what is going on.

Maybe if you ask if anyone was interested in a group buy on a/f guage and O2 sensor you may get a better response, I kind of doubt there is enough interest though. People here are basically tight wads and this is too high tech for the majority of them. bet you get a better reponse out of the race section Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

I was going to see what I could get AutoMeter to do for a discount for the site for their gauges. I was thinking about picking up a WB AF gauge for my car and was curious what others might think and be interested in. Just curious.
