Problem was, the o2 sensor read a "lean" condition and the injectors on the running side were pumping in way too much fuel, causing excess fuel to wash into the oil pan--bad news. So I disconnected it.
Many cars have 2 O2 sensors, maybe spoofing one and using the other would work? Or maybe reading how much the O2 was off voltage wise and correcting it a bit
