o2 sensor?

Which o2 sensor will be compatible with my 94 fd? There were two at the autozone one was like 17$ and the other was like 115$. The cheaper one was without a connector while the more expensive one had 1. They looked different and wondered does it matter which o2 sensor i buy? Im a cheap bastard and got the 17$ one.

You buy the cheap sensor, you have to splice the connector. You buy the one with the connector, you don't have to mess with that.

BTW, you can get a compatible o2 sensor w/connector from www.oxygensensors.com for only $60 or $73, depending on manf.

I have the cheap BOSH brand at AutoZone... Just have to splice the connector.. and reconnect.

I will buy Denso when I have enough money. As for now, this brand is doing me good.

You must be running stock. With the PFC, you do not even need the sensor. I do keep a wideband sensor I use with my LM-1., but thats coming out once the car is tuned. It in no way effects the way my car runs.

the one I just put in yesterday was by borg-warner and bought at kragen.. I think it was like $25 or something, and the wire needed to be spliced.

the PFC has fairly good closed loop control. i would leave the oxygen sensor in there, without it the PFC won't run closed loop.

ppl who have changed the oxygen sensor with the standard ECU, do you have any problems? Does it generate an error code?

I've put 8K miles on a generic O2 sensor without any problems.
