Charlie,
I changed the code in the Speediuno to use the TPS input to give manual mixture control from a potentiometer and it works fine, both with a Speedysim board and with the actual running engine.

Yes, my idea would be an opamp confgured as a summing amplifier, with the wideband on one input and biasing voltage on the other.
The TPS sounds simpler, if that will work.

Charlie,
The O2 sensor outputs a voltage but very little current. That would make it difficult to bias it in a predictable way. Biasing a buffered output such as a wideband O2 unit output would probably work.

Any reason (other than the need to run 'closed loop' all the time) to not use a bias voltage added/subtracted from the O2 sensor output, to control mixture?
