b16 swap: what to do with these two o2 sensors?
swap info:
1st gen b16a into 94 del sol si (originally d16z6)
problem:
i have searched and searched and have found nothing that i am looking for yet. i might just be "search-challenged" but i can't find anything to help me out here. i have 2 o2 sensors in my exahust manifold, as you well know, and my car only originally came with one o2 sensor in the bottom of the manifold/header. i have read that i need to run an extra wire for this second sensor and i have also read that i need to convert to a 2/4 wire something or other?
basically, i just need some info on this from someone that actually knows rather than my stupid *** trying to find something and getting nowhere/it being the wrong info.
gotta get this thing running in 2 days or less, so any info is GREATLY appreciated.
thanks

what if one doesn't have a cat? (not saying that i don't :wink wink
BOTH of them are in the exhaust manifold/header. one has a round plug, the other is squared. what do i do to make both function?

if i remmeber correctly, for an obd1 car, you only need one in the header. the one for the cat doesnt do **** unless u have obd2. even then, you could just do an o2sim.
Have a bung welded to your test pipe. When I had my eg6 I recall it having 2 o2's. I still have my old cat with the sensor stuck in it as a matter of fact.

Something doesnt add up right. Your OBDI should not have 2 o2 sensors. you should only have 1

If you read this right he is asking if he needs another O2 sensor, the car only has ONE and the exhaust mainfold has 2 holes.
answer = weld one up so the hole is closed and use the other one for your Sensor

i have a jdm b16 exhust manifold upper half on my gsr and it has two sensors side by side on the back of the header. i just plugged in the one i knew was an o2 sensor and just left the othere thing in there to take up space
