it says "ECONOMY" under it. I don't think it's a true A/F gauge, but a neat gadget none the less.

Its just a vacum gauge, most BMW's have them too. Also it says its a 2.8 and sounds like one too.

how do you figure, and why the hell would you want just a vacum guage in the car? no a boost guage i can understand :zzzzz:

An economy guage is almost always a vacuum guage.
For best economy, keep it in the green, worst economy is when it goes into the red.

Wayne,

The farther down you press the gas pedal the more you're asking the engine to do, so the lower the vacuum produced = lower economy.

I used to have a Saab that had an "economy" gauge, but it was on the tacho... higher RPMs = lower economy.
