02 SENSOR INSTALLATION
1. The following steps describe the proceedure
for the installation of the 02 sensor, bung and
pigtail routing. Specic layouts may vary on
your application.
1. Turn o the ignition and disconnect the negative
battery cable. Jack up the car and place on suitable
stands to enable access to the exhaust system.
2. Find the best suitable location to install the O2
sensor. It is recommended that the sensor be 6” to
10” after the point where the individual cylinders
merge and placed between 10 and 2 o’clock
position, (SEE DIAGRAM ON PAGE 8). It is also
recommended that there be at least 18” of exhaust
pipe after the sensor. Mark the desired sensor
location for drilling. If your vehicle is equipped
with catalytic converters, The O2 sensor should
be mounted between the engine and the catalytic
converters. It is critical that the O2 sensor is NOT
mounted on the bottom of the exhaust to prevent
condensation from entering the sensor. Verify the
O2 sensor cable is away from any heat source to
prevent damage to the cable.
NOTE: See diagram on page 8.
4. Weld the provided O2 sensor tting into the
exhaust pipe.
NOTE: The exhaust pipe was removed for
illustration. It may be necessary to remove the
exhaust pipe to perform this step.
3. Drill a ¾”id hole in the marked location. Deburr
the hole after drilling.
NOTE: The exhaust pipe was removed for
illustration. It may be necessary to remove the
exhaust pipe to perform this step.
5. Install the provided O2 sensor into the tting.
NOTE: Apply anti-sieze compound to threads.
6. Connect the O2 sensor pigtail into the ECI wiring
harness.
