Default Time to replace my o2 sensor

I'm barely getting like 200-250 miles per tank. Plugs/plug wires are new, prolly should replace cap/rotor too cause I have no idea when that was last done. I sure hope after replacing the o2 sensor I get good mileage again cause 200 miles per tank on a slow ass 4 banger sucks.

when did you notice the milage going to sh!t? catback exhausts, new rims, under inflated tires, and a dirty air filter will mess with your MPG's.

wouldn't the 02 sensor throw a check engine light if it was bad?

Somewhere below the Intake Mani, it's a pain in the ass to get to from just looking.
