I have also read the correspondence between yourself and Darrell everything is making sense so far. So here is my last question: If at any time I read a negative voltage coming from the O2 sensor does that automatically mean it is bad? Or does the computer know how to compensate for this? By the way I have recently a changed the fuel injection temperature sensor (it was bad). Hate to change a part and then have to say "oops" that wasn't it. (been there done that) Thank You Kai 87.2 Westy >> Hi Kai, you'll never see a negative voltage no matter how lean the mixture is. The life span of an O2 sensor is 60K. Replace it when it's time. Don' t worry about the temp sensor if you already replaced it. Michael Modl |
