if you are running a supercharged or turbo motor try and get a wide band meter and sensor setup.

Torana,

the lm-1 is a wideband one.

D.J.,
We have also got a autometer warning light we are mounting on the steering collum for low oil pressure.

Thanks hayden

The warning light would be the goods. Was thinking about getting one of them.

Then if wankers ask what its for just tell them it blinks when the coffee is ready...

Was also thinking about a af meter for mine to but it all got to hard. As usual i'll let you go first and if i like it i'll copy cat

Cheers.

one of my mates has an LM-1 in his speedway car and after the initial setup etc for methanol it was working fine and giving spot on readings compared to the dyno ... but after only a few races the display has stopped working, so im not sure if its just bad luck or what .... but it is a good bit of gear other than that.

Drag lc I've recently fitted an Innovate LM-1 & lMA-3 aux box to the LJ. It appears to be accurate has helped isolate a fuel problem i've been chasing.You will need a laptop to view the logs at the track.Innovate also has a forum which is very helpful. Warren

Refreshing this topic a little. As i am looking into obtaining an AFR meter.

A mate sent me this link, https://youtu.be/BbXO_l4srP4 and this guy D3Sshooter has several other videos too.
With very good indepth detail, for those interested in understanding what your AFR meter is telling you, how you can log it.
Right down to pulling down an SU carb, explaining the workings etc.
