My CEL has been going on and off for over the past year due to the CEL. I thought it was because my anti-fouler mod had gotten clogged, but i cleaned it out and it still comes on. Now its to the point where even if i reset my battery and drive like a granny it'll come on the first time i crank the engine and drive for maybe 5 miles. So where can i find one for LESS than 200 dollars? Autozone wants 300 and Mitsubishiparts.com wants 237. Its a FRIGGIN O2 sensor!!! Anyone have any ideas?

 

just spend the 237bucks. or just put a piece of tape over the CEL.. or take dash apart and take out the bulb so the light wont ever come on.. those are cheap fixes!

 

Go to autozone..BOSCH worked with no probelms for me...I think it was $50 or $40...

Those O2 sensors are always special order --- which sucks. I had to replace mine because my mechanics accidentally stripped most of the threads off of my original when they were swapping O2 housings. Of the three that showed in inventory in the US, one wasn't spoken for. Lucky me. Next Day Air (am delivery) and a wallet pounding later, and I had the part.

Makes me wish someone would stock a few!

 

Have you tried using 2 stacked anti-foulers? This did the trick for me...sometimes 1 isnt enough

 

Thats what ive got. The previous owner said he didnt ever get the CEL with this mod though. He might have been blowing smoke up my a$$ since it happened only 2 weeks after i bought the car. Thanks for the ideas though guys. That 50 dollar one you got at Autozone. Is it the universal one? I dont mind it, but the autozone near me didnt show that. Ill have to also check out Kragen.

 

I honestly totally forgot about those. How do you install them? Just keep the O2 sensor where it is and splice in those wires into the 02 sensor harness?

 

tripp stop breaking your car.

 

Im tryin man...

 

It can be flashed out of the picture too btw.

 

Flashed out how? I didnt know you could get a CEL tuned out.

 

Well its ECU flashing with a tactrix cable
