[Diy_efi] lean switching sensors?

This is the point at which the O2S switches from lean to rich.

The common mode is .450v.  On my Volvo it's .760v or something like that.

You can see this on OBDII cars.

Lean vs rich switch is just whether the O2S starts to cycle around lean (.25v)
or rich (.76v).  I presume that the application has a lot to do with induction.
My NA mustang uses regular bosches that switch at .45, my Volvo is HPT induction.
