    Default Killing the O2 sencor

    ok long story short, code 13 kept poping up ,i replaced the o2 sencor and now im getting code 44 (Running rich)
    And since im using a hell of alot of fuel im wondering whats the worse that could happen if i disconnect the o2 sencor will it stop the car from running so bloody rich ,$20 fuel in less then 23km not good

    check the wiring to the oxygen sensor, it runs close to the exhaust did you clip it back onto the inner guard so it can't get melted? also check the earth on the exhaust. You did not by any chance over tighten it and crack it or use ant thread sealant other than what it came with?

    Disconnecting the O2 sensor will normally make it use more fuel. Check your temp sensor and fuel pressure regulator.
