what _IS_ a good cruise A:F ??

[Fred Miranda]

At light load cruise, you will probably run into lean misfire before detonation.

I run one of my cars with 0-.02v from the O2 sensor(heated) at cruise, no
problem.
15-15.5/1

And once ran it at 16-17/1 with no apparent problems. (my UEGO box was
overloaded)
