Hey
I put some extractors on my car today but when i unscrewed the oxy sensor from the stock manifold it was seized in and the threads are now stuffed. I have another oxy sensor buy it is for a different car (still a honda) that fits, is it OK to use this sensor?
It wont make it run lean or hurt any thing because it is telling the computer different things?
Thanks

is it the same amount of wires ? IT might hurt the car as the wires might be grouped / assigned differently .

if its dead then say bye to your fuel econ while ecu is in closed loop (ie cruise and not WOT)

All the single wire Honda Oxy sensors are the same, some just use different plugs to connect to the wiring loom.
