seems ok, only done about 60ks since its been done. will let you all know when i refill the tank. anyone know how to configure the apexi auto timer to show the a/f i checked the manual and the bit i dont get is: it says

select a/f and press right then set the a/f to the value from above table according to what the o2 sensor voltage is. and the o2 voltage gets displayed for a quick second. so i set it based on what the o2 value is, about 11.0 so i set a/f to 950

then it says to set o2 value

select o2 and press right, then set the o2 to the value from the above table according to what the a/f value is. and the a/f gets displayinf for a brief second 950 and goes back to showing the o2 which is 11.0

i dont get how that works, so if i set the o2 voltage to 20 then the a/f is wrong and if i set the a/f wrong the o2 is wrong, it seems incorrect. wouldnt the o2 come from the ECU ? and be static and then a/f be set based on what the o2 reads?

seems strange that i set and calibrate both based on each other, as they depend on each other

350kms to a full tank. seems more realistic now. previously i was getting 250km's to a full tank. 100km difference thanks to the busted o2s sensor. my old one is my desk and when i shake it, it rattles. the thing thats annoyed me the most, is that ive had it serviced every 10,000 and its never been found as a problem., ie: its never been checked / replaced. its supposed to be done every 40,000 and ive had the car more than 40,000k's. sucks that ive had to find and fix this myself, this is what car dudes are paid for with each service.

oh well

if your fuel economy sucks check your o2 sensor

    • Take a couple of the big ones back to "work", leave them in the big bin.   Will make a good boom when the garbage truck emptys it out... I've heard from another source about the boom when they had put I believe it was a 4cylinder engine in the big bins at Richmond base...
    • That idea has crossed my mind, I do a 5km walk everyday, this does take me past some bushland......I think you may be onto something 😉  That, plus 1 rock on every bin night might do the trick, it may take a year, but it could save me a couple of grand The only issue is the big 'Boonies", I have a few that weigh around 30-40kg, maybe they should be the first to go into the raised garden bed,  and then let the next owner deal with them....my daughter gets the joint when I kick the bucket, mums the word mate......LOL Noice......
    • Wow. Did you call the car a Nissan Skyline?
    • You're retired Mark, on bin night, go for a walk, kind of like you're doing the beep test. Put one rock in the first neighbours, come back, get another rock, go to the second neighbours, repeat over many weeks. All rocks eventually gone...
    • No chop chop of anything mate, it is what it is, plus, I don't want any air that isn't either going through the cooling stack or intake getting into the engine compartment increasing under bonnet pressure  Yeah, the Mazda Speed aftermarket intake above is less than ideal for multiple reasons, the requirement to remove the bumper every time you need to service the filter, and also smaller in diameter than the NC1 OEM one Weirdly, Mazda Speed is part of the Mazda motorsport division, "form over function" and $$$$$ for Mazda from unsuspecting punters I suspect  After some googling about them it seems they added no power, but do increase some induction noise Meh In other news, the electricians have been busy today at the house, and are back tomorrow finishing up all the security stuff and exterior lighting, they also added some lighting on the garage ceiling, which will come in handy when working in the garage when it's not freezing out there My Birdies raised garden bed also arrived today as well, which I'll put together and place tomorrow, it's a big tall Bessie, 74cm high, 92cm wide and 214cm long, this will come in handy as I am starting to get "stockpiles" of good soils from doing landscaping, some of the clean rock, namely the river stone, will go into the bottom of the bed for drainage, as well as the old Apricot tree that was out the back,  and when it's full, I'll grab another one, I will be growing enough veggies to keep me both busy as well as supplementing the shopping list I'm also awaiting another quote for a new Colourbond front fence, as the "1980 style cemented in rock edging" that was there and "fashionable at the time" looked arse, and my god, the amount of cement used to fix the rock was insane, it took 1.5 days for me to break out 12 meters of the stuff by hand, trim the bushes back to the fence line and dump it out the back of the joint to deal with at a later date,I will soon need a skip bin to tip it all Unfortunately they did alot of the cemented in rock around the joint, which I hate, so a few pallets of retaining wall blocks for around the front and back where the cemented in rock is will be required to bring it up to a standard, and look, that I will be happy with 12 meters worth of rock and cement Finished smashing the fence line and ready for a fence to be installed, yes, the lawns need some TLC and thickness, the previous owner trimmed the grass to the roots 😢, the TLC I can provide, and nature over time will do the rest And there's probably about another 40 meters worth of this landscaping abomination left to do around the front and back gardens, I'm guessing maybe 3 or 4 tons worth, tip fees for this will be a killer Meh, all in all I'm having fun and keeping busy, plus, it's good PT
