Interesting thing about Ford, GMs, Chrysler.
I've got a good selection, 92 Crown Vic, 92 Chrysler Town and Country, 94
Ford 1/2 Pickup truck and I've never had any O2 sensors to need replacement
or anything in the ignition except spark plugs and wiresets, caps, rotors.
Although I've had to have a transmission in each of them.
