Icon2 Re: Could seafoam ruin my relatively new O2 sensor?

Could the car run without the O2 sensor? Would the smoke from the seafoam comes out of there as an exhaust leak? I still have the old O2 sensor but that's kinda of a hassle.
Thanks.

Re: What's with the new STAR smog check in CA?

Well, I was just wondering how could the test be so good in 2007 and be so bad in 2011? If you look at the mileage, I haven't driven it that much and keep it clean and well maintained. Just wonder...

Re: Brake lamp warning light

Guys, there's only one brake light on the dash. The other one is the brake lamp light behind the car symbol on the dash. The brake lamp light has nothing to do with the brakes.
