Hi,
I sent this to someone else - but is this at the front of the engine
under the belt?

This was conversion from a 1.9 to a 2.1.
I only say that because as I am trouble shooting the issue (which I
mentioned in another post) I guess I have an 02 sensor for a 1.9 as the
injectors are the 1.9 injectors?
If this doesn't work (with it running rich after it is hot...I'll replace
the O2 sensor.
Thanks,
Andree
