        If Your Cat is Good & You Know that the O2Snsr is Bad just have a Bung welded into the J-Pipe

VeryNear to its connection with the HeaderCollector & put Your New O2Snsr there ~ It will work much

more efficiently in that location ~ Just Lop the wires off the BadSnsr & forget about it ~

                                                                                        ORR ~ DeanB

I can't get my O2 sensor out and a new one is sitting on the work bench.  I may have a little cat bypass pipe made with an O2 bung in it.
