    Thing about lambda probe

    Hi!

    I saw last days a SPORT QUATTRO, and an interesting thing about the lambda probe. She was unmounted from EM and set in-the-air in engine bay, it is no way she could measure O2 for engine computer. What is the reason of doing such a thing? Anyone ?
    OOOO

    ECU programmed to ignore lamba readings. It isnt needed for full throttle. Only used at light throttle

      Does a SPQ even have a Lambda probe? I really don't know, but it's possible that not and the one you saw was for a gauge only.

        SPQ didnt have cats, so maybe it was pre-lambda control. Forgot about that. Are you sure it was a lambda probe?

          This SQ has some modifications done based on RS2 technic... I think it was the lambda probe.

          So it's depends on computer programm to ignore the lambda readings?
