Perhaps you have something clogging either your fuel or air lines? I'm guessing the --- means that it's either lower than 11 or higher than 17 and when you don't have your foot on the gas much, that car is having a hard time getting either air or fuel.

i have the same wideband. when you dont press on gas it goes --. for an example you are going 65 on the freeway and let go of gas it will show -- because there is no fuel running. hope this help

I've been looking into the problem for awhile now but couldn't find anything...my only guess is that your air/fuel ratio is messed up or your getting too much fuel (or maybe not enough :what:). Just my .02, but i'll keep on looking for you.

same here when i press on gas the fuel read 12-13. however, i think the the AEM wideband reads when foot is on/off gas peddle.

If i were you and were dumb/gay as you and your whole family, i would probably walk into the kitchen slowly, pull out the cheese grater and attempt to shave your tiny nuts with it. :word:
