1.no you dont have to get it fixed
2.each sensor is around $75
3. measures exhaust for optimal air/fuel mixture
4. ****tty gas mileage, failed emissions test, clogged cat

Is that used? Cause I would love to know where you get your sensors from if that is new.

So what are they at retail? Didn't know Walmart sold O2 sensors.

is urs o2 sensor or the secondary o2 sensor. cuz I had to replace my secondary o2 sensor recently, and it cost me $230...the o2 sensors are the most expensive sensors to replace. it doesn't affect the engine or anything, it juss give u bad fuel economy.

dunno bout retail. Its not walmart that sells it, theres a seperate company that runs inside walmart that deals with parts.

I bought a used O2 sensor from Lucky Star and than i passed easily on my emmisions. I was told never buy aftermarket O2 sensors cause they just dont last as long as OEM parts. A used one costs $60
