just quick question, for the air ratio, when you say "splice into the oxygen sensor" do you mean the wires that are connected to the sensor or the plug and on the gauge i have to cut the end sensor off, right?

Connect the gauge to the 02 sensor wire at the ECU harness, will save running a wire into the engine bay

The only problem is, E-Series use a narrowband o2 sensor, for an accurate AFR, you need a wideband o2 sensor

If im readng right then no BUT

If it says splice that means remove some on the wire insulation and solder another wire to that and then use tape to insulate the wire again.

The other way to do it is cut the wire and strip all three and solder them all together BUT to make it neat i would put 2 wires together and join that to the single wire.

Well whats this air ratio / oxygen sensor post about.

Oil pressure you need to cut into the oil gauge wire behind the cluster, and use only a single oil pressure gauge, therefore if theres one in the cluster you need to disconnect it, or if you currently only have an oil light, then you need to disconnect that and use the gauge with the correct sender.
