Re: [FlyRotary] Nice to Have Re: ECU oxygen sensor
I think the one Tracy sells is as good and
inexpensive as they come. All of the ones that I am familiar with use the
same basic design (except for the latest ones that use the new (and expensive)
so-called broad band sensor). I personally like the ones that use the 3/4
wire sensor (these have their own heating element) as you do not have to wait
for the exhaust gas to warm up the sensor before it start working. They
are a bit more expensive that the 1/2 wire sensor may $10-20 more.
I built my own LED A/F indicator and
integrated it with my fuel monitoring system. But regardless of whether
you build or buy, they are well worth having, in fact I would rather lose my
EGTs than my LED A/F indicator.

I certainly would
not draw that conclusion, Bulent. I have found theLED A/F
indictors such a good indication of what my engine is doing that I would
hesitate to fly without it now. If the engine starts to stumble you
immediately know whether it because its too much or too little fuel - sort
of nice to know, trust me. {:>)

Thanks Ed,
By any chance can you
recommend one A/F indicator?. I have installed the single wire O2 sensor that
came with the engine. I may even replace it?
