Hub I meant to ask you if you had figured out a fix for the 02 sensor code after you unplugged the pair.
No. I'm working on that. I'm sure it's a formula playing with resistors. Find the right value = Light goes out.
Also why is it called 02 sensor fault when we clearly don't have one ??? Un plug = check Engine light.
Actually we do. It goes like this. 02 pings rich/lean so it remains stoic. Stoic is 14.7. We have the ability to tune away from stoic at both ends. This by the action of the tail sensor. Under the seat is the same sensor as the IAP. Instead, they call this seat sensor the APS. So this atmo pressure sensor is reading sea level to mountain pressure. It's going to swap air for fuel we elevate. Same as would the 02 sensing too much fuel the higher we go. Cool shit, no?
So our atmo sensor fails, we default to an 02 reading spitting out 14.7 or close to it. Meaning, we'd have the ECU locked, reading 760mmHg as the only number used: digitally speaking. This is the math or 14.7 being 1 atm, 1 atmosphere = 760mmHg. In other words, we would be set at stoic. Plus, this 02 toggle acts the same as both platforms. Meaning, if a euro 02 took a shit? The preset of 760mmHg (stoic) would be math'd same as the 02: internally in the digital: not like the 02's analog meaning.
We burn that 02 radio click, we better watch the AFR. So say we unplug the 02/APS. I'm going to assume we read 760mmHg under both disconnect conditions as would be the toggled condition back to 760mmHg. Only your AFM knows for sure.
... why did you remove this hose ? Oil vapor in air box ?
Correct. But then again, I lose a tiny bit of balance or smoothing effect, if a pony is measurable i.e., up to a Horsepower or way less being back down to ponies? I think NASCAR used a more elaborate setup off the valve covers. Crankcase venting is more a racing gig, than emissions... Back then. But those still remain a racing trick as is today's PAIR. Drilling holes under the header near the head so that fresh air would keep the heat moving to fill a cleaner chamber, and where no inspector would look under the header wink-wink.
To many questions ?
Never too many. Keep 'em coming.
