I finally got around to try my LM-1, but have one problem. There is no room to install/weld the supplied exhaust bung. Would it be correct to remove the car's O2 sensor and install the LM-1 sensor in its place? All I'm trying to do is adjust the idle A/F mixture, since my engine is running very rich.

Regards,

Milton

They do have an exhaust clamp that allows you to stick it in the tailpipe. I think it's around $60 on their website.
Removing your O2 sensor can cause the car to run poorly.

Now I am lost.....

I know that proper procedure to adjust the fuel mixture, is to disconnect the O2 sensor, so not to fight the O2 sensor trying to compensate the mixture while you are trying to adjust at the same time.

As for the exhaust clamp, I was aware of it. But, I beleive the reading will be inacurate, since it will be reading after the CAT.

Please correct me I am wrong.

Regards,

Milton

Not sure what car you have, but the 328 has a plug on the cat that you remove and stick the sniffer in the hole. Will the LM-1 sniffer work in that hole?
