Subject:Need o2 sensor help
From:Ken Ehlert
Date:Mon, 21 May 2001 20:06:48 -0500

Anyone in the Chicago area have a digitool that I could borrow to solve a
problem with the o2 sensor on my '85 Westy? As long as it's disconnected,
the van runs OK but I'm concerned that the gas mileage could be better, not
to mention the emissions. When the sensor is connected the van will
SOMETIMES but not always run super rich, to the point to where it won't
start for a few hours afterwards.

BTW, I've already tried two new sensors in the last 2 years. Don't put much
over 3000-5000 miles on a year.

TIA,
