02 primary sensor (honda civic 98)

Jason 8 May 2005 17:15:26
 Hi there!

I was wondering if I could get a better deal than from the dealership for
this part... I was quoted 215$! I know that OEM for this part is essential
because the fuel consumption will be very noticeable if I don't.... anyone
have tips?

Thanks,

Jason

I've had success with the Bosch generic replacement for O2 sensors. The
downside is that you have to cut the connector from the old sensor and
splice it to the new one. The replacements I've used come with the splices,
and are available at major parts chain stores (BAP, NAPA). Look at yours and
count the wires to ensure you get the right type.

Is your mileage very high, and how do you know that you need an O2
sensor? Just wondering because it's often misdiagnosed (and expensive).

 About the only difference between the OEM and generic sensor is the
connector. You will get a check engine light long before you will notice a
increase in fuel usage. If you are using too much fuel it will make the
sensor look bad but the cause is not the sensor and it will burn out the
converter. Proper diagnosis is needed, not parts guessing....
