Subject:      Temp 2 Sensor Questions
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Well, back in late April or Early May I replaced the Temp 2 Sensor and it cured what ailed my 90' with the rough rich running and back firing. It was great. Well, a couple weeks later it started doing the same thing again. Common sense says it was the Temp 2 sensor agin - but I have no common sense and thought it couldn't be because it was just replaced. Well, I just put in a new sensor and sure enough that seems to have been the problem again. Someone suggested that sometimes the sensors can be bad off the shelf. That may be the case - however I was also wondering if there is something else that could have made the new sensor go bad so quickly?

What does everyoneout there think? Can something make the sensor go bad within a short period of time or did I just get unlucky and get a poor sensor to begin with?

-- Thanks,
