Subject:      OXY sensor Help!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi,

Just bought an 87 vanagon.  Bought an oxy sensor, was told to cut off
existing alien connector and splice the sensor into the existing line.

Hmm, its a 3 wire, 2 whites and a black. No way to ohm out which white
is white, does it matter when I connect them?

I also noticed that the connector to the black wire (ground?) at the
other end of the wire was bad (rotted away inside the rubber sleeve).

I wanted to solder the wires but the original wires won't take solder
although the oxy sensor side will.  Question, can I rewire it all myself
using new wire?  Is there a special type if wire to use. It looks like
16 - 18 gauge wire.

Your comments direct or to the list appreciated.

Happy Holidays,

Erik
