Re: Question...

Your computer will be cranky without a working O2 sensor. You'll need to have a bung for it welded in.

Re: Question...

Not really an aftermarket product review is it? This post belongs in tech general engine really...
And Deshi? In the future, maybe use a more explanatory subject line, "question" and very generic things like that don't attract many viewers...
