Disconnected autometer air fuel ratio and now car runs like **** help please!
Ok Im trying to get aggravated here. I disconnected the autometer air fuel ratio meter in my car. I disconnected all the wires and now the car runs and idles like complete ****. I didn't notice anything spliced into the O2 but i did notice that there was a purple and white wire that was spliced into and soldered into a wire coming from the guage. I disconnected the wire and reattached but still no go. This is seriously pissing me off can anyone help? Thanks

Was your AFR gauge working prior to disconnecting it? You said nothing was spliced into the o2 sensor but inorder for the gauge to work it had to be spliced in. I installed the gauge in my car and had to tap into the o2 sensor wire.
