    Wideband gauge??

    Explain to me this whole is your car rich or lean gauge.

    I want one along with lots of other neat guages. Does wideband thingy need a sensor in the zaust?

    If you search previous posts in the boards there has been loads of discussions and yes you need a sensor in your exhaust

    Maybe your only option!!! Unless somebody wants to go over it again, I realised this when i posted about them but sometimes you may just have to search before ya ask a question thats been asked before

    Re: Wideband gauge??

    lol appreciate your honesty but probably not the best thing to say if you want people to help you out, at least have a quick search yourself prior to asking, after all no one is really going to help someone who so obviously can't be bothered to help themself.

    In a nutshell though like the name suggests it monitors air/fuel ratio from the exhaust gas indicating whether or not your car is running lean/rich or leaning off under load etc

    Maybe because there's been a couple of threads about exactly the same thing only in the past week or so.

    If you can't be bothered to at least try & help yourself, and proclaim so with a 'can't be arsed' type comment, why should others?

    I hazard a guess that in the amount of responses and or words you have typed into your keyboard you could have had a bash at answering me with something helpful.

    If I was excluding & bullying, I wouldn't be posting in the first place, nor pointing out, again, that maybe you should try helping yourself first by having a quick scan back through threads from a week or so ago, read & digest the information given there, and save yourself from asking the same questions, which you've seemingly already started to do, again in this thread.

    You'll also probably find the 'can't be arsed' attitude won't win you many friends nor much help either.

    Well I couldnt be arsed. Sorry thats just the way it is sometimes I can be arsed sometimes I cant. Most of your posts have been negative. Ie "you wont win any friends" lol My life has many areas of interest i dont sit on a forum all day waiting for someone to post something i dont like.

    So why you making a big issue out of it then?

    Perhaps if you could be arsed to look, you also wouldn't start threads asking why your join date is 'hideously' incorrect, why you reckon you had to pay a newbie joining fee when that wasn't the case, etc.

    Keep on though, as you're obviously trying to make an unworthy point...

    I always though Kenobi was in the click?? Guess I am wrong!! From my point of view he has asked a valid question and been honest as to why he has asked it... I appreciate honesty and lets be honest he did get an answer in the end.

    Firstly I got the info i wanted early some people actually are here to help.

    Listen Mart (The whole worlds against me, ive been dealt a bad hand etc)

    Im totally bored of your grumpy old man attitude.

    Secondly My Join date was wrong. Also It did infact want me to pay A newbie fee of £25.

    PM me if you want to continue this nonesense no point having it on the boards is there.

    nah Rob i've made some truly very good friends through RTOC and Im very lucky to have them but I dont do clickyness. You always see the bum boys backing each other up and posting smilies when they take the piss out of peeps not in thier little circle.

    I'm embarrassed for them.

    It's got nothing to do with clicky bollox whatsoever. I'd say the same thing about searching back regardless of who it is. The problem is when people can't be bothered to look, even more so when there's been 2 recent topics about it, as I keep on mentioning, yet they then feel that they're being hard done & start giving it all the 'oh woe is me' cr8p.

    As for the people actually helping out comment, my conscious is clear in that dept. You for one have had advice & help from me since you joined rtoc, but good to see you remember that...

    As for the people actually helping out comment, my conscious is clear in that dept. You for one have had advice & help from me since you joined rtoc, but good to see you remember that...
    Must have forgot about that then. My sincere apologies.

    I too had the same response when i posted a question that had been answered before......You learn from your mistakes though i was told a whole lot of different stuff.....It seems to be rule of the thumb that a quick search first u would probably not have asked the question in the first place........trial and error
