air/fuel ratio hook up

hey guys. i'm looking for some help. i recently bought a 02 ranger 2.3 and i bought a air fuel ratio gage to try and optimize my fuel economy. i went to hook it up and noticed that this has a 4 wire o2 sensor. i was wondering if anyone on here has any idea what wire to connect the gage to or any suggestions on how to figure it out..

An ordinary "rich/lean" A/F display gauge can be hooked up to the gray/light blue wire either near the O2 sensor or near the PCM pin 60. It makes a nice light show but won't be of much use for optimizing fuel economy.

A wide band A/F meter will display the actual A/F ratio and it requires that a dedicated wide band oxygen sensor be added to the exhaust upstream of all cats. WB A/F meters cost much more than the rich/lean type.
