It basically watches what the 02 sensor is reading and lights up according LEDs on your dash. Its a non numeric readout but its no matter to me.

Bruce, I also noticed the same thing with my car, it seems like sometimes LB will not engage below 2200, 2300, whatever. What a mystery this lean burn is! I understand that you don't want to get mixed up in the wiring and stuff but it is really quite simple! I am not an electrician, Ive only soldered stuff on cars a handful of times and I almost always ask somebody more knowledgeable to explain how to do stuff first. But this kit is really not hard to install. I am glad that I got the MPGuino because it reads accurate instant MPGs, whereas the scan gauge measures instant MPGs assuming a constant air to fuel ratio. But whatever.

I have been getting so frustrated with this LB not working the way I wish it would, Im going to try a couple of things first but I am considering getting illegal and buying a $30 non CA ecm. Its gas mileage versus the EPA!!!!!

Right now I have a PVC pipe hardware store intake thing goin on... hey, it was cheap. I just had my buddy crush bend a 2.5" exhaust pipe for free. Im gonna see if the warmer air through the intake is what it takes. And beyond that, a grill block, and undertray. Aero mods mean less throttle needed. yipee.
