what he said...it should move around during driving,if it doesnt then its actually bad,but at idle 14.4-15.5 is where u want to be at..and WOT 11.2-11.5,but since ur s2 tune,ur gonna see under 11.2 due to tune being rich

it will eventually settle down...it will go around,and after about 10 seconds or so,it will settle down to a normal idling AFR

i dont know, i might be going out on a limb here. BUT when you installed the gauge did you install the wide band O2 sensor as well?

if all you did was hook an AFR gauge up to your factory O2 then its going to give you an LED "light show" so to speak.
