I ran my A/F guage wire down the center into the shifter boot and under the car straight to the O2...I forget which wire it was, but I ended up having WIKD281 test each one of the O2 wires until (Me sitting in the car) I could see the gauge work...I also wired a signal wire from both O2's to a switch then from the switch to the gauge....The switch is so I could read either side of the engine or either O2...

When the car is warm and the gauge is hooked up it will flicker back and forth between rich and lean...That is normal....
