No, a ticking noise could be lifters, rods, piston slap or who knows what else without hearing it.
Not by itself. On newer cars, the oxygen sensor can tell the computer to richen up or lean out the air fuel mixture. It could cause a little, almost unnoticeable amount of extra smoke if it was calling for an extremely rich mixture. If you have a gasoline engine and there is a lot white smoke coming from the tail pipe then your engine is either running excessively rich or has a coolant leak and is burning water (some white smoke is normal in the winter, because the engine runs richer due to the cold). If the smoke is black then the engine is burning oil.
I do not know the complete answer. Usually, as the oxygen sensor is failing, it will cause the car to run rich, so that your exhaust gets blacker. If it totally fails, then the computer will go into a default mode (limp mode), and without having feedback from the sensor, it will make the car run at a fixed rich setting, again making the exhaust blacker. I am also hunting for an answer since my car is stalling and the check engine indicates a faulty downstream oxygen sensor. Since it is $85, I would love not to have to replace it. yes an 02 sensor will make a car stall replaced both on my 2000 zx3 now fixed much better gas millage to
Do you mean fuel pressure sensor? If so please post year, make, model and engine size.2004 mercury monterey.{dont know engine size}
There are multiple sensors used to control fuel injection in an engine. Depending on the year, make, and model or the vehicle, there could be upwards of 20 sensors used to determine the amount of fuel injected into an engine.For most modern cars, the primary sensors, which the computer uses to determine fuel needs, are the Oxygen (O2), the Mass Air Flow (MAF), and the Crank/Cam positions sensors.The O2 sensor measures the amount of oxygen in the post combustion exhaust stream, and determines if the engine is running lean (not enough fuel) or rich (too much fuel).The MAF sensor measures the amount of air coming in through the vehicle's intake manifold, and determines the amount of fuel needed for the volume of air the engine is moving.The Crank/Cam position sensor measures the position of either the crankshaft or the camshaft, and tells the computer if the engine is running or not; if this sensor is not working, the fuel injectors will not deliver fuel to the engine.
There are to oxygen sensors on a 2004 Chrysler Sebring. They are located on the right side of the engine, against the firewall. Sensor 1 is located in front of the catalytic converter, and sensor 2 is located behind it.
A malfunctioning oxygen sensor can cause the engine to be low on power.
Yes
yes
a fouled out oxygen sensor can result in bad fuel economy, and make that dreaded check engine light come on, it can also make your car "bogg out" / sputter, when accelerating, when replacing, make sure to get the o2 sensor socket, makes for easy replacement... as far as the check engine light you may need to stop by dealership to have it reset, most will reset for free
Yes, it measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust as compared to the oxygen in the atmosphere. A faulty 02 sensor will make the engine run rich and eventually ruin the catalytic converter not to mention bad gas mileage.
your oxygen sensor should be located on your exhaust manifold or on the exhaust pipe near the exhaust manifold, Make sure your engine is cool before placing your hands on the exhaust manifold, It can be very hot!
AnswerA/F Sensor Circuit Response Malfunction!! Oxygen sensor bank one sensor one slow response or at limit. This code is for the front 02 sensor on the side of engine that has the number one cylinder. May be caused by vaccuum leak or bad sensor.
-Is the engine running? -Is this while the vehicle is in drive? -ETC? yes it stills make noise and i don't know whats going on with it, i was told it might be a rod or something else. i was told that it need wires, oxygen sensor and cat converter.
Not enough info to answer. Please ask a new question and include year, make, model, and engine size.
There may be more than one 02 sensor and they are all threaded into the exhaust sytem at various points, depending on make, model, engine size and year.
I have a Lexus 96 es300. There are three oxygen sensors on this car. All the sensors are on the exhaust pipe. The first oxygen sensor which is in front of the engine when you open the hood called (bank # 2). The second sensor locates between the back side of the engine and the wall called ( bank # 1). It is very hard to replace if you have a big hand b/c there is not enoght room . The third sensor locates near the catalic convert. You only can see it if you are under the car. Most of the oxygen sensor go bad is the ones between the wall and the back side of the engine (Bank #1). Do not confuse! Bank # 2 locates next to the FAN/RADIATOR. When you check the oxygen sensor, make sure which bank - bank ?I have a Lexus 96 es300. There are three oxygen sensors on this car. All the sensors locate on the exhaust pipe.

A faulty oxygen sensor can make a car smell like gas. Oxygen and gasoline mixing wrong can cause excessive pollution. Replacing the oxygen sensor can correct this issue, and improve the gas mileage in the car.
