I assume its a mechanical gauge? I the drive side of the block at the front is where the stock gauge plugs in, I removed the part for the stock gauge and put the fitting there if you need a pic let me know

if you have a pic handy it would help a lot.
i just spent 2 hours tryin to get my air/fuel ratio gauge workin and cant figure that out either.
does anyone remember what color the signal wire from the sensor was?
i have a schematic but theres two wires that arent power and ground and i tried both of those but the gauge didnt do anything.
for that you just have one wire power, one ground, and one for the signal right? since theres only 3 wires for the gauge thats what im assuming.
man electrical anything is not my friend at all.
thanks everyone.
