Carbon monoxide replaces oxygen in the blood, binding to hemoglobin more effectively than oxygen, which leads to reduced oxygen delivery to tissues and forces the heart to work harder. It is a colorless, odorless gas commonly found in car and bus exhaust, resulting from incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. Prolonged exposure to carbon monoxide can lead to serious health issues, including poisoning and even death.
Measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust
It means you have a leak in your exhaust line, the exhaust should be completely vented away from the car by the pipe. Since your lungs pass carbon monoxide, one of the components of exhaust smoke, as though it were oxygen, into the bloodstream, but your cells which should be receiving oxygen can't use carbon monoxide, you could die from it. Immediate suggestion, get it towed to a company which repairs or replaces exhaust systems and have it fixed.
Usually oxygen sensors are what would be screwed into the exhaust manifold.Usually oxygen sensors are what would be screwed into the exhaust manifold.
It pumps the blood quicker to get more oxygen to the muscles...
In the exhaust manifolds & in the exhaust itself
Exhaust
Could be a diesel? If not then replace your oxygen sensor on your exhaust. A bad oxygen sensor causes the exhaust smoke to be dark in color.
Oxygen sensors are located on the exhaust pipe, generally between the exhaust manifold and the catalytic converter.
The upstream oxygen sensor is mounted in the exhaust manifold The downstream oxygen sensor is mountedin the exhaust pipe after catalytic converter

The oxygen sensor is located on the exhaust manifold and is the only item on the exhaust with wires going to it.
