Sorry I didn't list the VX type I have - it's the Federal version with the 5-wire O2.
I have found a new Honda OEM 5-wire O2 for $361 - far less than the $540 that Honda wants for it at the dealer !!
I did end up resetting the ECU by removing the 7.5 amp fuse ( Memory ) for a number of minutes.
At first, I thought that that was the trick as the car drove for about a mile and a half before crapping out and running rough/sputtering/missing etc. As opposed to the time I I tried the n $159 O2 and only got 2 houses away from my driveway before it sputtered and coughed.
Even with my O2 disconnected, my last tank was 46.5 mpg.
I know with a functioning O2, it's gonna push me into the low 50's mpg !!!!!!
Gotta love it !
Thinking that if the gas prices keep heading up, I'll need to park the car in a locked vault, as it becomes more and more valuable as gas prices rise !! LOL !!
I'm gonna go back and pick the Honda dealers brain about the O2, as they are the ones that said it was bad.
I'll keep you guys posted as to what ends up working for the little O2 finicky VX !
