What else can I help you with?
Does O2 sensors affect gas mileage and performance?
yes
What part of the car changes gas mileage?
Tire size has effect,also o2 sensors , carb jetting, fuel injector size,transmission kits ,rear gears.
Does not having o2 sensors in your tires affect gas mileage even if the tire is inflated properly?
Tires do not have oxygen sensors. They can have pressure sensors. The lack of pressure sensors would have no affect on fuel economy.
Why does my 2001 Nissan sentra sometimes sputter when at a stop?
Gas mileage also went down and I just replaced o2 sensors.
Will running a straight pipe on a 98 TJ wrangler effect the o2 sensors If yes can you eliminate the sensors and will it make your jeep run bad?
Removing the sensors will have an effect, and the engine will run poorly or not at all. If you staight pipe after the cat converter and leave the sensors, you will probably be ok. There are o2 sensor simulators available aftermarket, though I dont have experience with them. Removing the cat may cause problems with emmissions inspections as well. If you do remove the sensors, and it runs ok, you will probably lose gas mileage and power, because the computer will get confused.
Your 2003 Toyota matrix runs great but gas mileage is awful why?
Have a mechanic check the O2 sensors. If one is out then the computer will give the engine too much gas. I have also seen some sensors go completely out and the check engine light does not come on.
Will bad O2 sensor cause bad gas mileage?
yes
Will bad O2 sensor affect gas mileage?
A bad O2 sensor can affect gas mileage. It is an emissions sensor, so when it goes bad, it does not reflect emissions performance on the car, which could cost a lot in gasoline.
Will a failed O2 sensor on a 1993 3.0L Toyota 4x4 signficantly reduce gas mileage by as much as 40 percent?
I'm not sure about 40% but it WILL reduce gas mileage I'm not sure about 40% but it will for sure reduce your gas mileage. 40% does extremely high for just one O2 sensor
Does a 1995 dodge ram have O2 sensors?
The gas engine has one before the catalytic converter.
Where are the O2 sensors located?
All O2 sensors are threaded into the exhaust system at various points. Upstream O2 sensors are located before the catalytic converter(s) and downstream O2 sensors are located after the catalytic converter(s).
Where are the 02 sensors located on a 1993 Oldsmobile cutlass ciera V6 3300 and if you remove the catalytic converter will it effect them in a bad way?
It is not so much how it affects the sensors themselves, but how much it affects the engine management computer (ECM). The sensors will notice the change in the exhaust gasses and the computer will try to compensate for the change. This often results in poor running, reliability issues, and poor gas mileage. There are however, o2 sensor simulators available aftermarket, though I have no experience with them.
