•
Place the sensor at least 1 meter from the open end of the exhaust system
to avoid incorrect readings due to outside oxygen (recommended)
o
Where necessary for shorter exhaust systems the sensor could be
placed closer to the engine.
•
Place the sensor away from the flame front coming out of the cylinder head
and away from areas where one cylinder may have more effect than
another.
•
If possible, do not place the sensor near exhaust slip joints; some designs
allow air to enter resulting in incorrect readings.
If the sensor has to be placed near a slip joint, reverse the slip joints to
reduce the influence of introduced air.
