Ken Powell Bryant, Arkansas 501-847-4721 C150 / RV-4 under construction -------------- Original message -------------- From: kenpowell@comcast.net Hi Buly, A narrow bank air/fuel meter only tells you if the engine is lean or rich over a very narrow range. It would be nice to know just how lean (or rich). Never fear, it only takes money to find out!!! I'm buying a PLX wide-band meter to help tune my 5.0 Mustang after I get that engine back together. I'll also use it in my airplane when I get back to that project.

Hi Buly,
