o2 sensor

Re: o2 sensor

How bad would a faulty o2 sensor affect my gas mileage. it seems like i'm just throwin money in the tank of late. also when i start my car for the first time in the mornin it revs a couple times (flashing the check engine light) and then stalls unless i give it a good bit of gas. is this the o2 sensor malfunctioning?

If you have a newer 325i (1989+) you should check the on board diagnostics. With the ignition switch on and the engine not running, press the accelerator pedal to the floor 5 times in less than 5 seconds. The check engine light will start flashing stored codes. If you get a 1444, then there are no faults. If you get something else, report back the code and I'll tell you what it means.

Unlimited supply !
I am selling 3 wire O2 sensors , they are the 3 wire kind .
these are the ones used on the Mustang 5.0L . 87-92
I will sell $30 shipped

Brand New ! Brand : Motorcraft , original equipment for Fords

P.M. me

Parker, I would just get 1 of these. People make too big a deal of splicing 3 wires. The convenience is worth maybe $10.

I have no problem splicing, but I want Bosch. I can get the Mustang Bosch part for 39.99 at Autozone which I think I will do.

I was thinking that Motorcraft O2 was just repackaged Bosch, perhaps not.

just bought mine today at the dealership
$65.55
OEM with factory plug
Hoping to install it when it stops snowing.
My car is running super rich lately and it's tossing CE lights that go away when you rev the engine.
Checked for vacuum leaks. Found nothing. Next step is the O2 sensor.
