saand · 12-27-2010, 12:25 AM

Hi All,
I am looking at changing my mazda 626 to run lean. This will involve getting a wide band o2 sensor, somehow fixing it to the exhaust system and making a circuit to convert the wide band signal to the desired signal for my ECU.

Everything on the list is easy for me except getting the actual wide band O2 sensor. I am wondering if anyone knows a list of cars (sold in australia) that have wide band o2 sensors. I have a wrecker close to me so i hope i can go there and just grab a sensor off one of the wrecked cars with little cost.

Also any help in how to identify a wide band sensor would be good.

Am i looking for only 5 wire sensors or are there different variants.

Thanks
