Default question about an O2 sensor spacer

i got a 94' LS teg... i bought a Skunk 2 ITmanifold a new 4-2-1 exhaust a new test pipe... and after i added all that the O2 sensor started flashing a cell on the CE light... so i bought a BRAND new O2 sensor put it in...
same thing happend...

then i was on ebay and came across this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BLOX-...Q5fAccessories

do you think that this is the problem?? like they state here in the add???

"This BLOX Cel eliminator will gap out your 02 sensor from your catalytic converter, header, or test pipe. Having more exhaust flow through your o2 has a hard time to get a correct reading thus throwing a CEL code."

could it fix my problem...

What exact code is it throwing? Go to a parts store and have them scan the codes. They should do it for free and you will get more information. You could have damaged the wiring harness.

A '94 is OBD1. This is the primary O2 sensor. It is needed.

Sorry, missed that.
Was caught up in this whole Blox thing.

To the OP.
Did you buy a replacement Denso or NGK o2 sensor?

my wireing is NOT messed up at all... and i DID get the primary O2 sensor i beleave...it had the same color wires as my stock one and im only the 2nd owner of the car so i kno it was the car original O2 sensor... i think that it has a green wire a white wire and 2 black wires... is this right??? clip was the same... wires in the same place... wire colors were the same... and it was a denso O2 sensor...from advance auto for like 125.$ or something like that...

the wire colors that i stated above was from memory i could be wrong on them, but i think thats what they were... its been 2 months since ive done this and i just want he CE light gone... cuz like i said this didnt start untill i added the IT manifold, exhaust, test pipe and header....

the code is a 41 i think... maybe a 42 but there bolth for the O2 sensor any ways... so....

thanks for the help guy (in advance)

I suggested having the codes pulled at an auto parts because they will have more details than the paperclip method. It could be a bad heater circuit, etc. More information is better in this case.

You got ripped off on the o2 sensor pricing. Take it back for a new one if you can.

Denso primary o2 sensor replacements only cost around $60-70 dollars.
