found this on a web site, its for my VW
What is O2 sensor simulator?
The OBD-II cars (1996-1998) have the two O2 sensors to measure the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas. First sensor is measuring it right after gases escape engine and this data is used to adjust fuel trim of the engine, as well as catch some faulty conditions. The second sensor is located after the catalic converter, and is used to detect the health of catalic converter. The ECU expects the signal from the sensor to be oscillating from below 0.4v to above 0.6v, but not above 1.2v, every few seconds when cruising.

If you install the aftermarket downpipe with no cat (which as we all know is purely for off-road applications) the ECU will detect this and indicate the error (MIL). The ECU is quite lazy at detection, and detects this condition approximately during second long trip. You can reset the ECU to clear the error code, but it's very inconvenient, as you don't really know if the error was because of oxygen sensor or some important thing is wrong and needs to be taken care of ASAP. It's also quite annoying .



but www.casperselectronics.com might have something for the EVO, if not email them, they can make one. they have some for most cars, i'm about to get one for my VW.

sorry put the wrong web site at first!

I called casper's and they said they have nothing for the EVO right now, including an o2 simulator. They said they were working on it, and to check back mid-summer.

Anybody know of any other place that could hook someone up with one of these sensor sims?

Thanks!

There is a thread on here that is recent about how to get rid of the CEL caused by the O2 sensor. Look it up, but basically you take an 18mm spark plug anti-fouling extention and drill the end out to .5" and then screw it in to the exhaust and in turn the O2 sensor into it. I did it last week and so far I have 400 miles on it with NO cel. It works great!
