My new Smith's Air to Fuel Ratio sensor (carb
enrichment gauge).
http://www.geocities.com/firespiter/smithsairfuel.jpg
It's actually just a Nordskog analog air/fuel gauge
that I crammed into a triumph Temp gauge housing
(which I got at at the Bowie British car show for $5),
and then used spray paint and model car/airplane
rub-on letters to modify the stenciling, to match my
other Triumph gauges.
Spare the critiques. I know the letters are all uneven
on the cover plate, but I got tired of laying down
tape to line up the letters(lazy actually; it took an
hour to do the LEAN and RICH evenly spaced and
line-up) . And from a distance it will look fine.
Thanks for the tip on these Nordskog gauge, Larry!
(I'd been looking for months for an air/fuel guage
that would fit in a 2" housing.)
