RE: [T3] Needle mixture meter



<x-flowed>Yes, as I sit here in the office I remember that 600 F was
the minimum operating temp on the haltech.  I did wrap
the collector with exhaust wrap
out of paranoia, but didnt do b4 and after
so I don't know if it was necessary.  Reading on the bus
is very stable, and indicated a very rich condition
on the weber DFAV, like to the last mark on the rich scale
(but that is a story for the type 2 site!)
I guess my indication that it is working properly is that you
can see it zoom over the entire lean-rich range when you shift, etc.
and also it detects my  hesitations (which are lean!)

That's okay. I thought it was a fair comment.

Good point. I forgot about the possiblity of heated sensors, but I also don't
know what temp they really need or whether the heated sensor would make
up any difference.
