O2 Sensor
I'm getting some graduation money since graduation is soon here, and i'm wondering if my o2 sensor needs to be replaced....
a while back, when my guage was on 1/4 tank full, i had about 330 miles on the trip meter, now i get about 270
i did put my finger down the exhaust tip yesterday, and came out with this
time to replace? it'* never been replaced after 112,000 miles

112K on the car the O2 is prolly soon to be on it'* way out the door.
I wish I could get 330 miles and still be at a 1/4 tank.
I hit 330 and I'm prolly pushing the damned thing into the gas station.

The sensor should come out easy...
If you are planning to reinstall make sure you use some antisieze on the threads...

You do not need to buy the special tool if you are replacing it.
Snip the wires and use a deepwell, or if its pesky, a 14in pipe wrench will make it behave.
Just use a box end wrench to install it.
You also might want to check you fuel pressures before doing the o2, running rich would kill a new o2 fairly quick.
