Fuel economy during light-throttle driving on the highway may or may not be decreased. No damage will be occurring.

I'm probably reading this wrong........but how does a o2 sensor, which is the item that Produces the .1 to .9mv, that's milli-volts, cause a fuse to blow. Just asking. Don't chop my head off.

Oh, maybe it's not a stock 02 sensor since the stock one has......one wire (if the shield isn't counted). Yeah...that must be it.

A dead short will cause it to blow. Regardless of the voltage a dead short sends the amps into infinity.

It will make you run slightly richer while driving on the highway. It will have no effect on performance of the car at WOT, part throttle acceleration, or at idle.

Only affect part-throttle, constant speed conditions.
