Tuning and LC-1

Post by Juliemac »

I am running a MS V1 with an Lc-1.
After adding a turbo, I moved the O2 sensor higher up the pipe about 12" from the catalytic converter where it was.
This way, I avoid having the LC1 box too close to the heat.

But now the O2 sensor is readling fully rich or lean with no adjustments in between when adjusting the air/fuel.
1) Move it back because its too close to the turbo
2) is there a setting I may have forgotten?

I think that's what they do when the sensor goes bad. From what I have read most people with this problem get a new sensor, re-calibrate, and everything is ok.

You can try just re-calibrating it, it may still work.

I just moved it back and its still doing it.
I think, your right, it lost calibration. I was fine when parked last fall.
