#753111 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 18167 Re:installing a wideband A/F gauge. 3 Years, 11 Months ago   You can adjust the gap very easy as long as you don't use anything to pry between the center electrode and the ground electrode. You need to only adjust the ground side. Most of the little round key chain gaping tools that they sell have a notched spot on the side of them that is made to hook onto the ground strap to bend it for adjustment. I have even used pliers to grab the strap to widen the gap and carefully tap the strap to close the gap. Just be gentle when putting anything between the gap to check it. It's really no big deal to gap them. here is a good example of the tool for gaping http://www.ebay.com/itm/Motion-Pro-Spark-Plug-Gap-Gauge-08-0460-3807-0048-57-8460-/331019313088?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4d1249dfc0&vxp=mtr   Logged     Last Edit: 2014/03/25 21:27 By davej.   dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #769220 SMOKINJOE (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 877 Re:installing a wideband A/F gauge. 3 Years, 9 Months ago   didn' mean to keep anyone hanging for this long. i had to send my gauge back to innovate. i started the bike, the gauge did its sweep and then just went blank. i called innovate during spring break and they said that i would have to call back the next week because they were closed during spring break. what a job,,, lol. i got my gauge back and just finished hooking it up. give me a couple more days and i try to figure out what jets to run with a barons neddle.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #775442 SMOKINJOE (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 877 Re:installing a wideband A/F gauge. 3 Years, 9 Months ago   ok ,, after running my bike for two weeks with the afr gauge ,here is what i have come up with for those of you running with the barons jet kit. my main is a 167.5,but i guess you could run what ever main that u care to, if i understand correctly the main only comes into play when your wot. i am running the 40 pilot jet,the barons needle set on the forth clip from the blunt end clip spacer,no washers.my pms is at 2 1/4 turns out from a light seat. at 60 mph ,the gauge is reading 14.8 to 15.2, around town running 45-50mph it is reading 14.2 - 14.5. at idle i have it set to read 13.4 . just rode 240 miles today and got about 44 mpg.averaging 65mph.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #775449 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 18167 Re:installing a wideband A/F gauge. 3 Years, 9 Months ago   SMOKINJOE wrote: ok ,, after running my bike for two weeks with the afr gauge ,here is what i have come up with for those of you running with the barons jet kit. my main is a 167.5,but i guess you could run what ever main that u care to, if i understand correctly the main only comes into play when your wot. i am running the 40 pilot jet,the barons needle set on the forth clip from the blunt end clip spacer,no washers.my pms is at 2 1/4 turns out from a light seat. at 60 mph ,the gauge is reading 14.8 to 15.2, around town running 45-50mph it is reading 14.2 - 14.5. at idle i have it set to read 13.4 . just rode 240 miles today and got about 44 mpg.averaging 65mph.

That is normal for this type of gauge.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #778946 Warden (Moderator) Moderator Posts: 9535 Re:installing a wideband A/F gauge. 3 Years, 9 Months ago   I've been following this for a while. Yesterday, I scheduled a Dyno Tune as I'm just not happy with the mileage. However, after a few PM's with davej and re-reading this thread, I think I may cancel the Dyno and install an AFR. Smokes, can you help with he o2 sensor installation details again for a Freedoms 4"? Hardone2get, can you comment on how your LC-1 and Speedhut gauge worked out?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
