My 02 sensor is not responding well and when i checked it it looks like there is a plastic or metal sheet missing underneath the car. My question is where can i get a plastic or metal sheet to place underneath the 02 sensor to prevent from exposure to elements and wind. can the 02 sensor go bad due to too much wind exposure?

the actual sensor is in the exhuast manifold or exhuast pipe. as long as the wire isnt deteriorating it should be fine. silicone is what kills O2 sensors prematurally

Question. Are all toyota O2 sensors the same? New they are like... 140 each, but I could get a them from a new damaged toyota for like.. nothing at all.
Also, do all ST's have 2 O2 sensors or did the 94-95 OBD1 celicas come with just one O2? |

My '95 ST had 2 sensors, one in the exhaust manifold/primary cat, and one before the secondary converter (under the car). It is not a CA-emissions car.
FallenHero: At one point I was running a universal 1-wire O2 sensor that I got for just over $40. If you can find one at the local parts store with the proper flange and aren't afraid of some splicing, it will work. This post has been edited by S_C_M: Jan 4, 2005 - 4:16 PM |
