sensor issue or no?
i've got a 99si, no cat........emissions this month (got a cat? i want it)
anyway, sensor is zip tied under the car for the past 1.5 yrs..........engine light is still so i don't know if thats an indication that the sensor still reads?

The sensor still reads. You should have two O2 sensors and the second one is there to let the car know how the cat is performing. It must be thinking your cat is not working right and turning your check engine light on.

I would assume that the o2 sensor reads temperature.
If its just hanging its obviously cold and not getting any heat from the exhaust.
Throw a cat on and invest in a straight pipe if your really worried about the 2 ponies.
