Precision Wideband Controller

Post by cmonref »

Ran across the PWC writeups tonight and read thru them all. Interesting developments that I was not aware of. I do not find reference to the PWC in the Megamanual, so I wonder if it is finished and is offered by B&G for sale?

Anyway, near the bottom of "Wiring and Installation" is this paragraph. The bolded sentence is incomplete -- is antiseize OK to use when installling the sensor?

"Avoid excessive heating of sensor cable grommet, particularly when the engine has been switched off after running under max. load conditions. The use of cleaning/degreasing fluids (thinners or VarSol) or evaporating solids at the sensor plug connection is not permitted. Assembly with special high temperature resistant grease (i.e. anti-seize) on the screw-in thread (e.g. Bosch-No. 5 964 080 112 for the 120g tin). The LSU4 uses the same metric 18mm x 1.5mm threaded bung as virtually all other oxygen sensors, including narrow band sensors. The sensor should be torqued to 30-45 ft·lb (40-60 Nm)."

Brian,

The PWC has not been completed. The sentence in question should have "assemble" where "assembly" is. I will fix it right away.
