Title: Abf lambda sensor bung
Post by: weazgti on 17 July 2012, 18:36

Had a quick look on eBay and there's loads to choose from in different sizes.
Anyone know which one I go for? I have standard down pipe not stainless or anything fancy.
It's One of the last thing to do at the mo, it drives ok just goes through some fuel.

I understood M18 * 1.5 was standard lambda size.

Or put a sensor in there, not wired in.

Don't really understand why you wouldn't be running with a lambda.  :huh:

Why not wire it in?
I be only driven it to work a few times for a proper run since engine going in just to test it really. I don't plan on driving it without one.

Are you running the mk3 16v ecu/management or still on kjet?

If kjet then the sensor is not used

I meant put the sensor in there not wired in as a stopgap, before you wire it in.

Bring the downpipe over to .:WR next Thursday if you want - I've got a couple of old cats with lambda BOSSes on them, we could easily cut one out and weld it into a downpipe and fit it with the car on the ramp in an evening, if you want.
