    Strange problem with idle and O2’s and knock

    After driving for a while and then coming to a stop my O2’s show 820’s. BLM’s seem normal at 130-134, TPS is set at .44 with the car off and .46 with the car running and the IAC in park is 28-30 depending on the fan. If I let the car sit and idle the O2’s slowly go lower and lower. I have...

    Digital dash question

    The digital dash in my car just went out today, does anyone know whether or not any of the aftermarket gauges will work with the factory wiring? I am thinking I would rather spend the $300.00 on a nice speedo, tach and gas gauge and fabricate my own cluster out of ABS plastic.
