I have O2 feedback on (pfc) and it cycles between 14.1-15.7afr when cruising, and yes i can feel the change in the "beat" of the engine similar to what Hanaldo is describing, and it clearly goes in time to when the gauge cycles from lean to rich and back

Sometimes it is worse than others but it is noticeable....never paid attention to when it is worse so i dont know if its related to operating temp but i'll monitor it now to see

Either way I just thought that it was normal due to the engine getting varying amts of fuel from being in closed loop as my O2 sensors voltage looks good and cycles as normal .........it does not do it if I turn off O2 feedback

hmmm..not connected as in not wired?

Effectively, yes. The sensor itself is still in the dump pipe, but the harness has been unplugged. When connected it gives a lot of trouble, made it impossible to tune.

Well then there is no possible way of the ecu seeing a voltage input so I cant think of any reason why the afr would cycle... just saying even if O2 feedback was indeed on and seeing erratic readings from the dud sensor when in closed loop

Sounds like you have similar symptoms but a different issue

It is not unknown for the wire that powers the heater in the O2 sensor to melt through and short the signal wire. You shoud check that loom from end to end to see if it good or bad. I can imagine it possibly feeding voltage or short to ground to the ECU if there is something wrong and seriously messing with the feedback.

      This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.

      Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛

      Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it

      Good tips, I like it! 😂😂 My wife is a LOT more frugal than me so it's only me we need to worry about! A splurge to her is buying 2 pairs of socks in one visit at Kmart!

      Haha, the appropriate response to the question "Is this new?" is "I've had this for a while.". With the unspoken small print that a while may be the time since this morning or five years ago   And to be fair I learned that from the best, i.e. my wife. Because it goes both ways.
