def worth the money to get a wideband...really helpful to help diagnose fuel problems...saved my tail when the fuel pump took a ******* on my 2000...dont just buy something because it will be 'cool' or fun to watch, but somethin that will be helpful to you especially if your tight on money...

Wideband is on my wish list too...it's a long list lol.
Wow SilverDog, $250+ for 1 book, that's insane! I can only imagine what it's going to cost by the time my daughter goes to college (she's not quite 3 years old yet).
BTW, here's a shot of my vacuum gauge, can't remember what I spent on it 9+ years ago, but it was relatively inexpensive when compared to what everything else on this truck costs...

Yes I couldn't wait. Went ahead and purchased the full dual pillar along with Autometer Phantom Trans Temp Gauge. Picked up a good looking vacuum gauge for under $10 by APC. Yes some of the books in college cost $250. Both my thermodynamics and mechanical design books were around that a piece. Not trying to scare you but when you pay $180 for a USED book, something is messed up(Just remember, online is your friend).
