Here at the university, we have what we call a "wide range oxygen sensor"
which is a probe that sticks in the exhaust. When it warms up (it takes a
while) it gives you the air/fuel ratio. Neet device. We also have a
"chassis dyno" which allows you to load the engine to normal driving
conditions. Without that, you can only check the mixture at idle or high
revs-no load consitions. I don't know where you can get these
devices. What you can do is install a normal O2 sensor in the exhaust and
get a reading (rich or lean, won't tell you how much though) and then play
with the jets till you get it almost stoich. Good luck...D^2
