hi

i have read on this forum that most fuel saving gadgets that claim to improve completeness of combustion are BS because the combustion is already 97% efficient. therefore, how does using a lean fuel mixture make better fuel efficiency?

i'm thinking of going for a wide band lambda sensor mainly because my current one is broken and needs replacing anyway.
