    Has the list gone dark? All of a sudden I stopped receiving posts.

    It depends on the ECM and what sensor is being used. Older narrow band sensors rapidly switch between about 0 volts and about 1 volt and the ecm generally will throw a fault code if it does not switch back and forth quite frequently. Newer units use wide band sensors that require fairly complex controllers that often generate up to 5 volts output. It is difficult to use any of the sensor modifications for long term mixture control with an automotive ecm. They are smart enough to start throwing fault codes and various limp modes if a signal is out of range for very long.

    Subject: Asleep...now waking up
    It is true that lead fouls the sensor fairly quickly, probably less than 100 hours in my investigation and experience. That said a couple things 1. In my case I am using an Innovate Motorsports MTX-L gauge paired with a wideband Bosch sensor. I have cleaned the sensor in MEK once and recalibrated it once as well. This seems to extend the life by a little bit but in the end, I have already planned for frequent sensor replacement. I look at it as the cost of flying and for having chosen a Mazda 3-Rotor with ECU controlled injectors (ala Tracy Crook). 2. Most =9Cmodern=9D ECUs will accept input from a wideband sensor and =9Cself adjust=9D based on the readings. Even the =9Cold school=9D Tracy Crook ECU actually does use the O2 sensor input which makes programming it a little better. There is a knob on his unit that allows manual mixture adjustments and it does work but am not sure what electronics are involved in the process (rheostat?) 3. Analog output (basically voltage) on my MTX-L (2 independent channels/leads) is programmable and I have one wired to Tracy=99s ECU and the other to the EFIS. Both are set to wideband 0v to 5v and corresponding A/F ratio. NOTE =93 I am taking output AFTER the gauge does what it does to the sensor signal. I gave up trying to intercept the signal and do anything productive with it Not sure any of this helps, but for what it is worth, I am WAY happier KNOWING my A/F mixture and making minor tweaks (again Tracy Crook EC3) along the way.

It outputs a 0-1000 millivolt level DC signal that is indicative of oxygen the exhaust stream. Here's a general run-down on the technology and practice. https://goo.gl/dKy9JW Depending on which type of O2 sensors are in your system, they'll present a voltage on the order of 450 millvolts at stoichiometric fuel mixture. You can 'spoof' the signal into the ECM by applying a 'bias current' to the sensor's output . . . the magnitude depends on the sensor's output impedance. I wasn't able to find any mention of output impedance for these devices . . . but it isn't difficult to measure. Is your system installed and running? Bob . . .

    Subject: 1/4 watt Panasonic resistors
    From: "dj_theis" <djtheis58@gmail.com>
    I am building the Audio Isolation Amplifier detailed on the Aeroelectric Connection. I purchased some of the residual boards from Bob Nuckolls in late 2017. It's been a while since I've done any board level work but I have enough self confidence (justified or not) and experience to not have many concerns with the project. Anyway, a recent shoulder surgery provided the "free time" to stop working on my plane and spend some quality time with a soldering iron. I ordered components from Digikey and received the completed order in just a few days. I was surprised to find the 1/4 watt resistors appear to be (what I remember from years past) as about the size of 1/8 resistors (i.e. just under 4 mm in length). These are mostly Panasonic resistors and when I go to the Panasonic datasheet (also available on the Digikey site) the specification shows that yes, their 1/4 resistors are about the size of what I recall (from years back) as being 1/8 watt resistors. So, what gives? Every reference I find on the "web" (other than the Panasonic specification document) shows 1/4 watt resistors about the size of what they were when I last visited a "walk in" Radio Shack store (6 to 8 mm long). I don't want to go through the trouble of assembling the amplifier if I'm just making an expensive smoke generator. Any comments the forum can provide would be much appreciated. Dan Theis.
