If your exhaust temp is to high from excessive oxygen(lack of combustible fuel), you will quickly burn a valve or the top of a piston will melt through. There are some things to look at with this; you cut back the fuel too much, you will not have enough power and will take longer to burn up any engine parts than if you have enough fuel to run 'ok' and ad oxygen, as in a substantial vacuum leak, which will burn valves or pistons QUICKLY.
robinson;
Not cracking on yours alone, but I have seen this a few times and not just by you. But the O2 does not relate info that would be considered a "lack of combustion" ! It measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust which the computer will adjust for what it knows is the incoming air flow and what it believes is the oxygen content of the exhaust, there-for increasing the amount of fuel to the engine. So as to have an approximate air/fuel ratio of near 14.7. If the O2 sensor is giving a continuous steady feed it will use that indefinitely, however if the O2 is faulty or inconsistent then the pcm, ecu, pcu, or what have you can and likely will set limp mode and run the pre-programmed default and keep near to the assumed fuel use on values from the air flow sensor and map(if present). On some models that were not equipped with air flow sensor and only a tps, then it uses that to determine fuel needed and the computer relies on the O2 and a map sensor for adjustment values. Most cars are able to run fairly well without the O2, in limp mode. However if the air flow meter or map isn't working well or at all you will likely not run or run poorly(usually due to dumping of fuel). I think that some will disagree and others will agree, but trying to alter the map or air flow meter signal is too tricky for these efie's and add on's. I have found it's much better and more of an advantage to restrict the air allowed in through the air intake, while adding the HHO. Works well for me!!
Its done right or its not done !
Hail HHO.
