dynojet w/b reads 18:1 For the last few days everytime I get on it - it reads 18:1, but I know its not right. I thought that it was because I was running leaded gas until a friend called and said that his was doing the same thing as mine.
Any ideas???

6-8 months sounds like a really long time to me. I thought a stock o2 sensor would lead foul a lot quicker than that.

I called DynoJet today - they couldn't come up with any idea. Said that I needed to talk to w/b expert. So, I left a message and got no call back - Great customer service.
No there is no free air calibrations and they told me 6-8 months on the w/b (none in stock). A friend has a brand new sensor that I'm going to try - I'll let you know.

Okay, problem solved - it was the sensor. The only thing my friend and I have in common is that we both run Sunoco 100 unleaded. So, I don't know what did it, but if I have to put a sensor in every 6-8 months thats better than buying a new engine.
Thanks for everyones help!

Well, I don't know about the Bosch but back in the
day, when you could still get regular, I ripped out
the restrictor on my little Fiat 2000 Spider's gas
neck and put some leaded down it. Took less than
the trip home for the Bosch EFI to take a crap and
I had a flamethrower exhaust.
A Pinto carb, an older Fiat Weber manifold, and all
better....
Anyway, there are some lead-resistant sensors but
it sounds like the LSU-4 is not one.
