LOL...
What kind of gauge is that?
Also, it looks like a narrow band. Either way those are CRAP. All it is, a light show. Adds the bling bling factor.
If you want a real a/f monitor, go wideband. AEM has the UEGO. THere are other brands aswell..

AHAHAHAH wtf.. owned.gif ya i doubt that would really help you figure anything out.. heres what you do.. i did a video on what should be done to crap gauges..
seriously narrowband 02 sensors are the biggest hunk of junk anyone can buy. i wish i had a video of my wideband.. just fluctuates about .3 points at idle..
here do this...

^^^ ummm. english please.. grammar too would be a huge plus.. what the hell did you just say? and if you switch to a wideband sensor it wont be jumping all over the place.. you just have a shitty narrowband o2, with wires spliced in and a crappy gauge... so yah..

With wideband the readings would be steady.
You'd need to put in a wideband o2 sensor obviously though, so you'd have 3 oxygen sensors which would be the simplest way to do it.
They make wideband sensors with narrowband outputs I believe but that just seems unnecessarily complicated.
