are universal senors ok to get for a civic ex asl long as they are the right amount of wires etc??? it would be great to get universal ones becasue it would save me around 200$ for both sensors! i need some because i was running rich for a few days and now i got to get a new CAT(catco high flow CAT) and two new o2 senors cause the running rich damaged them!

 

www.sparkplugs.com theyre like 75% off what you would pay at autozone or something... mine at autozone would be like 169.99 on sparkplugs.com 17.99

 

Depends on the brand.
F*ck bosch - lasted several months with me before crapping out. Get denso or dont bother. I get 35mpg on my denso of 3yrs

Yeah, the only reason they charge you that 169.99 is becuase it already has the little white connector on it...it's very easy to do. It comes with a chart and shows what wires to cut took me 3 minutes tops. Get the universal should be around 60 bucks or so.

 

wat bout the cx o2 sensors.. are the universal ones ok because i read that my 96 civic cx is a heated o2 sensor or something like that.. but its a 4wire sensor...

 

Yes, a heated o2 will have 4 wires even if it's universal. Reguardless of it being universal a non heated o2 will have 1 wire.

 

I've had a bosch o2 sensor for the past year (35k miles). still hasn't failed me yet.
