My check engine light has been on for over a year. It started intermitently and then just started staying on all the time. Along with this came the usual poor idle, terrible mileage, etc, etc. Right away I knew it was my O2 sensor, I was just too lazy to replace it. Lately I've noticed that my car has started to smell like rotten eggs after its been running, so now I know the cat is bad too. I want to go ahead and jsut replace the upstream O2 sensor, the downstream O2 sensor, and the catalytic converter. Here's my questions:
1) Where have you guys found O2 sensors for the cheapest price? I know I checked with Autozone a while back and I think they were over $100 for just one sensor, but I found them on Ebay for like $70. Any other places that have them cheap?
2) Is the upstream O2 sensor different from the downstream O2 sensor, or are they the same part/part number? Anybody know the part number(s) off hand, my Haynes manual isn't helping me out on this one....
3) Where do I find a new catalytic converter? I haven't looked into this one, I have no idea where to start.
Any help would be much appreciated. I really want to get my car running smoothly.
