these a/f guages are a narrow bands and only really good for WOT (wide open trotle) other than that they are worthless. Its not worth the $60 they cost new, better off with a wideband they are just costly but worth it but not for the everyday stock car. but if u must know

white-12v switched
purple-o2

what u have is correct so carry on.

There is no factory gauge.. but there is a factory idiot light that comes on when your oil pressure hits zero.. its more like a "You're Screwed" light though cause usually if you see it.. its already to late.
