can you speak from experience..
Running overly rich at times will ruin a wideband O2 sensor??
Should I replace it yearly?

 

if you have a wideband, you shouldnt be running overly rich. no?

 

..just for curiousity, the wideband being there and working.
not necessarily hooked up to your EMS for automapping.
For example.. using it for display purposes only.
Running rich like 11.0:1 and sometimes into the 10's.

What kind of wideband o2 is it? Is it a bosch or ntk?

ntk sensors have a longer life then the bosch ones.

 

really mine says bosch on the box and ntk on the sensor.

 

really?

You probaly have is Part #: C5010-75044 Brand: BOS Product: Oxygen Sensor OE connector Honda Civic 1.5 VX 3Dr 1992.

It comes in a Bosh box, but is an NTK sensor.

Me too.

 

Why are you running that rich anyways.

 

If you run to rich youll take out your rings.......

Last time at the track with my new tech-edge wideband with ntk sensor at boost I ran no higher then 11.3 (mostly 11.1) A/F but it was like 40F outside that day, in the winter I'm running much richer poop on that....

 

So is my sensor NTK?
Came in black BOSCH box labeled 13246

 

The sensor is NTK. It doesn't matter what the box says.

 

Same here.
