That is interesting. Thanks for the input. I think I can get a universal O2 sensor for about $56 from Pep Boys. I like that price much better than $120....

Sorry...haven't been on in a bit, but I just got a new and put it on. It seems to be working great. Try www.sparkplugs.com...they've got a denso universal that runs 49.95. All you've got to do is cut the plug off the old one...they've got the instructions and connections in the box with the new sensor.
