OXYGEN SENSORS
The O
2
Sensor constantly adjusts the fuel to the minimum
usage for maximum performance. The primary function
of the oxygen sensor is to minimize the vehicle emissions
by "sniffing" the exhaust, then sending a signal back to the
brain to adjust the fuel mixture, if necessary. A "secondary"
function is to prevent the catalytic converter from being
ruined by excess "unburned" fuel in the exhaust. Unburned
fuel in the exhaust stream causes the temperature inside the
catalytic converter to skyrocket - the "core" inside the cat
melts down until the cat is plugged. This makes the car run
badly (it's hard to push exhaust through a solid object!). See
why it's important to replace the O
2
sensor?

In 1996, VW started using a second O
2
sensor (behind the
catalytic converter). The second sensor can monitor the
effectiveness of the cat and helps the fuel injection system
compensate for a "less than optimal" converter.

This 22mm wrench grabs the O
2
sensor all the way
around, preventing the sensor from gettin rounded
off during removal. A small cut out on the end of the
wrench allows you to easily slip it over the wire(s).
Works on almost all European cars.

DON'T FORGET THE HARDWARE!
Exhaust systems are held together with clamps, gaskets,
nuts and bolts.
This stuff is always rusty and hard to remove. Ask your
salesperson for new hardware! Complete installation kits
are available that take the guesswork out of installing your
new exhaust system.

Remember the
saying"Penny Wise,
Pound Foolish"? Don't
be "Pound Foolish"
- replace the oxygen
sensor when you
replace the catalytic converter! When a cata-
lytic converter fails, it is often caused by a
bad O
2
sensor. If you replace the cat without
changing the O
2
sensor, chances are your cat
will fail prematurely.

break at the bend in the rear muffler front pipe.
These stiffeners reinforce the weak point in the
bend. Install one with your new exhaust!
