    Michael G. Mshar (Mgmshar) | Monday, August 27, 2001 - 05:31 pm  Anybody out there running a heated O2 sensor? If so, did it make your car idle better? I put a heated O2 in my car, and it seems like the car runs smoother at idle and light throttle when I unplug the heater. It also seems like my car has a rougher idle and more vacuum fluctuations when I use the heated O2. Anybody else see that in their car? Mike |

The main thing noticed was the longer, more consistant life. The regular ones would seem to degrade fast, and partial throttle ping would result. I installed only one heated o2, and it is still in there after 20k miles and works fine. |
