I think you need to weld a bung and put in a wideband sensor

Get the AEM UEGO. I am getting one installed next week and am probably going to put a stock fuel pressure regulator in. That way I can lean this car out a little. Its running a little too rich. I wont attemp it without a wideband sensor though. The narrowband sensor are not good, Kind of like looking at a picture of a car that is black and white photo, and guessing at what color the car is. That is kind of what a narrowband sensor does.

It was a white wire coming off the O2 on my previous Honda that I had. As for correct readings, go with the AEM UEGO. Weld in a bong, and put in the wideband. This will help in overall tuning ability. The autometer one is not accurate at all and just reads based on resistance. When you go into closed loop, it just bounces back and fourth. Invest the money in the Wideband.
