How do you install an air/fuel ratio gauge?

I just won one off ebay and was wondering where to hook it up to.

Ohh and how do you read them?

*I think* you tap it in to the oxygen sensor.

Get a O2 sensor, weld on a connection onto your down pipe or wherever your car requires it, connect the O2 sensor to the connection then plug the guages wiring into the wires for the sensor. Of course you will still need to find a 12V switched fuse to attach the gauge to for power.

...the o2 sensor tells you your air/fuel ratio. it gives off a different voltage depending on how rich or lean you are.

so ALL you have to do is splice into the O2 sensor and run power to the guage, and thats it? sounds easy enough
