hi does anybody know what guage wiring i need to extend the wiring to the sensors on the throttle body?
i rear a thread which says awg18 0.8mm.
if its the wrong size would it change the sensor readings due to different resistance?

sensors use very low current, so wire diameter is not a major issue. 7/0.2 upwards is fine.

Remember to twist wire pairs together tightly as this helps to aliminate any pick up of ignition noise.(use a slow speed electric drill to twist the wires together )
