what should these be at idle?

 

they should be the leanest you can get away with while still producing enough torque to allow for a smooth idle!

 

depends on your car, year, engine etc.

If it's your S1 then anything from lambda 13.2 upwards is ok, or higher than 0.9.

gus do you know lambda and afr are one and the same thing,. just different ways of measuring just that the way your question is worded like you want both.

lambda 1 = 14.7 afr
lambda 0.86 = (0.86 X 14.7) 12.6 afr
lambda 1.2 = (1.2 X 14.7) 17.64 afr

 

no one likes a smart arse let alone a welsh smart arse

 

only trying to help you english cunt lol lol

 

long time no hear or see lunk no GT5 either whats the crack?

 

i dont love you no more lol lol i found a better bear

 

 

i run my cossy on around 12.9 on tick over seems to like to run a lot sweeter slightly rich

 

jay - why does my zeitronix read both

 

it reads both because some people prefer to work in lambda, others in AFR. It' just like a boost gauge can be in PSI or bar for example. Lambda 1 is a stoichiometric ratio. It means that all petrol and all air is consumed in the combustion process with no excess of either.

Rich mixture means excess fuel, and lean excess air. Rich is anything less than lambda 1, lean anything over.

well i know what they are

was just wondering what it should be at idle
strange that they are both displayed at the same time then

did wonder why

 

shit i did that without moving my lips

like rick say's dude but i work in afr's

 

Never is 100% of the fuel consumed, simply not that efficient.

Mine ran around 14.2 AFR at idle, co was 0.97%, 137PPM.

LOL !!!


Double LOL !!

 

simon the worry thing was he phoned me as soon as he read that,,, i think he was worried about the other bear LOL think he wants to beat him up LOL
