Lambda

[skymera]

Unplugging my lambda with the engine running doesn't seem to do anything. Doesn't affect idle or anything noticeable when driving.

Is this normal?
If it's faulty, would it be best to leave unplugged for now?

it,ll drive the same, you will just use more fuel basically

Sweet.

Wasn't sure if it was to affect idle or something if it was unplugged.

i use less unpluged, but a hole in exhuast causes it probably

maybe eh i think most ecu,s will err towards richer/safer without lambda input as a rule

could a unreasonable fuel pressure regulator dust me out ?
and prefacelift regulators,,,,,,how long theyr good for?

My 4-2-1 manifold didn't even have a slot for a lambda - i messaged Hoodedreaper who I got it off and he said he had no problems at all with it unplugged! How bizzare.
