    Default no oxy sensor vp ss 304 werid ?

    HI i have a 1993 vpss 304 was looking at headers the other day and noticed there was no oxy sensor fitted anywere in the headers or any part off exhaust system
    All off my v6s 3.8s have had oxy sensors, i thought the ecu needed input from sensor to make mixtures right
    thanks

    my v8s got a oxy sensor mate - urs comin up with any error codes - if not (like mine) could be the engine warning light globe gone -

    can easily put ur car in diagnostic mode and check - but very weird indeed - would be a very thirsty car without it id imagine

    Do you have aftermarket extractors fitted? Really dodgy ones without an O2 sensor plug?

    check the 4 letter code on the sticker in the memcal. might be able to work out if it has a NZ non-oxy sensor tune in it
