first ride in my cobra AWSOME

[canadiancobra]

I have had the car since november but there was to much snow so never even took it for a test drive but the wait is finally over. The temp was just above freezing today and the roads are clear of snow so i said what the hell i am going for a rip It was great the car pulls like a train from about 40-100 mph. Did not do any hard runs from a dig as the roads are cold and i have drag radials and did not want to put the car in the dich. I have a few questions about my gauges. The pyrometer was showing about 1000-1100 when crusing and would get up to 12500 under heavy throtlle what is this telling me and where is the danger zone also my wideband was showing 14.5-15 what is this telling me and what is the danger zone thanks for all the help this forum has been great for us new guys

14.5 to 15 at idle correct? At wot is should be 11.4-11.9ish.

Ditto here. And I had a head start.

Glad you got to drive her.

Must be nice we just got a dump of snow at home tuesday but should melt fast with all these warm temps. These cars are so much fun to drive I love it can't wait till the salts off the road and they are dry. I got some work I have to do on the car yet so it's not that bad.

I hope you were not boosting it with novembers gas! that is NEVER a good idea, in my opinion.

No the car had 2y old fuel in it as the previos owner never drove it in the last 2y but it had under a quarter tank so i filled it up but it ran crapy for the first few miles till i got that fuel out of the system
