Default Those with Wideband A/F Ratio Guage...

Do you run the sensor off only 1 bank? I was looking at the autometer guage kits and it comes with only 1 sensor. Can these be wired for 2 sensors?

No, I mean that the kit only comes with one wideband sensor. Is there another attachment of the back of the guage itself to hook up another senosor, and does it average the two readings?

There aren't two readings to average. There's one sensor that sends signals to the guage.

Maybe have to have a dual type logger?,,..I'd like to watch both banks.....not just one...what if a injector starts leaning on the bank with no wideband attached?Just tying to figure this sheet out...

So those with an a/f guage on boosted cars are only monitoring 1 bank?

Someone has to know this. I'm sure there are plenty of people on here with an A/F guage.

Mmkay, have you ever been under your car? There's a perfect spot to get a reading on both banks... on the crossover pipe. Only real way to get readings on both banks is to have 2 A/F meters, or a dual-band logger... Which you apparently don't have.
