Jeff; I do not remove the hose when setting the mixture. I say adjust the engine in it's normal configuration. This is how I do it before heading to the vehicle smog inspections:

1> drive the car until hot. 2> turn off engine and disconnect O2 sensor from ECU but leave monitor connected to sensor. 3>start engine and adjust AFM spring to get O2 output near center of range. Use the allen socket screw to fine tune.

Of course do all this last, after timing and throttle body adjustments per Bentley. As for CO, I guess I have always been lucky.

Jeff Warner spoke thus.... ....I temporarily installed your O2 sensor last night in the engine bay. Very nice little device. I had to go back to your website ( http://neksiwel.20m.com/photo5.html ) this morning to discover that I was in fact looking at the gauge upside down.
