    Default Extractors finally getting installed

    Theyve been sitting in my garage for about 2 months now, finally getting them done at radiant exhausts in sunshine tommorow morn. anyway curious as to how long i should wait to change my O2 sensors after the exhausts have been installed?

    Give it about a month. The coating on the extractors contaminates the sensors. Some people don't have any issues, some do.
