It's output must be electrical.
Part of the electrical output will go to a solenoid, that by opening or closing, adjusts the vacuumn advance on a car - which in turn adjusts the timing. The other part of the electrical output will go to a different solenoid, that adjusts the air-fuel ratio in an old fashioned carberator.
The object of this is to turn my 1963 Volkswaqgen Beetle into a fuel flex car, that can run off any combination of acohol or gasoline. The alcohol will come from a moonshine still.
Calibration of the timing and air-fuel ratio mix, will be done by using gasoline as the zero reference point. Since plans on the internet exist for making my car run off PURE ALCOHOL, then the air-fuel ratio and timing for alcohol , will be used as the high end reference point. Mixtures of gasoline and alcohol, as determined by the sensor, will be used to adjust the engine for variations in-between.
Tried automotive section - no takers on this question.
