the amount of oxygen in your ex exhaust
2:00
gases if the sensor is faulty and
2:02
sending incorrect readings your engine
2:04
could be running too rich too much fuel
2:07
or too lean not enough fuel either way
2:10
you're going to be wasting gas if you
2:12
suspect your O2 sensor is on the fritz
2:14
get it checked out by a mechanic ASAP
2:17
