O2 sensor
Hey all,
Check engine light came on and put out an O2 sensor error. Did some troubleshooting and ended up replacing one of the O2 sensors.
The check engine light went out, but still experiencing sputtering. I've read on various forums for other cars that it can take a few miles for the car to start properly converting the fuel to oxygen ratio from a new O2 sensor. Any validity to this?
I did disconnect my battery to reset the ECU. Only driven roughly 7 miles since it's been replaced.
Cheers,

I would give it more than 7 miles. But sometimes the o2 codes points to another issue. Do you know which you replaced? is it just a sputter or actual power loss? But again, give it a little more mileage

Hey Rabbit,
Replaced the one that's right close to the radiator fan. The code hasn't resurfaced but I got another random code related to my knock sensor. Made a new thread about that.
Thanks for the knowledge, though
