82081, o2 sensor idea
Posted by shybuck, Oct-21-04 06:04 PM
Ok I was think what if I moved the front o2 to the rear. I dont have a rear cause im a 95. I would plug the front o2 bung and move o2 to the rear bung, comes with greddy exhaust. Would this give a more acurate air/fuel reading or do u think it would hurt performance. I would just make the wires longer, thus still having it plugged in to the front o2 sensor wiring for the ecu.

This would result in a very inaccurate fuel mixture unless you remove the Cat. The cat will burn unburnt fuel making the ECu think you are leaner than you are causing the ECU to enrichen the fuel mix. if you have no cat then it may work fine.

I can't think of any reason why it would make the car run better. It's further back in the exahust stream so it will be colder, which may screw up the heating of the sensor. Making the wires longer wouldn't help either, since there's more of a chance of something cutting them, and more voltage drop across a long wire.

95's have two 02 sensors.

'95 AT cars only have one. The MT cars have two. And I can't think of any reason to move the O2 sensor.
