Title: Don't tell Steve but ....
Post by: helstejeep on April 12, 2009, 09:32:50 PM
I have put the Oxygen sensor away somewhere safe and guess what I cant find it  :shock:  So we just ran the jeep without it.
We need to get the Jeep MOTed for the summer and he keeps going on about this flippin sensor.

Can someone PLEASE tell me what one I need to look for .. because I keep seeing loads on ebay etc for £13 - £60   it also had a plug on it  and the ones I keep seeing don't :oops:   Helen

the ones you are looking at on ebay are basically a cheap replacement, they don't come with a plug attached but are fitted  by cutting  the wire a few inches from the plug and crimping them together,I have used both types  and never had a problem with them.it may be worth finding a bosch agent and see if they sell a replacement for your jeep as they generallly come with the correct  plug and make sure you use the copper grease on the  sensor threads!

Call lighthouse or Mansfield. Either will supply the right one.

I was pointed in the direction of this link by a fellow birty recently: http://www.lambdasensor.com/main/jeep.htm (http://www.lambdasensor.com/main/jeep.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

It looks like the part you are after (for a TJ) is a Bosch: 0258005736, but check it out.  I’m after a front one and once I’d identified the number, the prices seemed much cheaper on ebay for the same thing – I’ve not ordered mine yet!

I've not tried Lighthouse or Mansfield yet.
