Product Description
NOTE: Fits 95-97 OBD2 engines only
Changing out your old oxygen sensor will go a long way to helping your 80 Series run a lot better. A bad oxygen sensor can easily make the truck run lean and can contribute to it over heating. This is the short pig-tailed sensor, almost 8" long for the front oxygen sensor.
