Ever think about knocking out a batch or two for the rest of us who are less adept?
I'd sure buy one ... Jim S.

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?
