    o2 sensor wire switch

    Hey guys once my exhaust is all done this weekend, I want to install an exhaust flame thrower kit. I know that the richer the engine runs, the better the flameage... So I was wondering if it was possible to put a "cut off" switch on the 02 sensor. Thing is, there's 3 wires for the 02 sensor (x2 for the otherside also), so does anyone know what wire would have to be switched to make the motor run richer? I'm trying to make it so that the switch when activated, will have the O2 sensor act as if it isn't actually plugged in which will make it run richer, which will mean bigger flames.

    Lol I know what I'll do... I'l put a switch on each wire and make a box for all 6 switches and flip them all off..... kidding. So yeah I was just wondering if it was possible to put a switch on one of those 3 wires to deactivate the O2 sensor. Thanks for any help.

    I have a set of fuel injectors, you can just put one or two into you exhaust, hook them up either to your existing fuel system or to a seperate fuel pump and a switch and then install spark plugs further down the exhaust. Then you get your fire but not risk damaging your engine

      :stupid:

      Thats the cheapest good way to do it there. I was thinking doing that to my side exit cut outs. Though I may go with a propane setup instead.

        Well the kit that I'm getting says it doesn't hurt the engine or the exhaust system or anything. And I didn't think that running the motor rich just to shoot flames for a few seconds would hurt the motor.
