Fellow Suffragons;

I have a hard time believing the O2 sensor only affects 1% of fuel
management. I know for a  fact that a (rain) shorted sensor  can have up
to a 100% negative effect on the engine.  Also we have all know that a
new sensor can improve milage up to 15%.

>and the O2 sensor, which provides a fine adjust within a very small
percentage
>(1% or so?) at the optimum point within the dynamic range.
