    Air/Fuel Gauge

    Does anyone have the electrical diagram on how to install an AutoMeter air/fuel guage? How difficult or easy is it if I have no idea what I'm doing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    there are 3 wires
    black=negative or ground
    red=ignition sw
    green= O2 sensor output wire.... in MK2 the O2 sensor is only 1 wire

    wiring up an A/F gauge is fairly easy... just need to get a solder to extend the green wire to reach the O2 sensor and the rest is just wiring everything up

    about 20 minutes or so

    As with any low voltage electronics, lots of ppl have had interference problems. Thats why toyota uses a shielded wire from the O2 to the ECU. I recommend you use a shielded wire for the O2 pickup to the gauge too. Radio Shack (if you have one near you) has a 22g single conductor shielded speaker wire that works perfect. Also to consider if interference is still a problem (was for me), run an isolated power circuit to the battery with a relay on the ignition circuit. Set up like this all is well. Good luck.

    Thanks for the info guys. Hopefully I'll be able to figure it out.
    So in order to adjust the mixture, would I just turn the little screw on the AFM? My friend has adjusted it before but we never had an A/F guage.
