Missing o2 sensor? May 19, 2009, 01:26:15 PM New to this web site, new to the forum, but not new to trying to keep my car on the road. I'm just a Mom - driving boys to ball games and such. Have a '88 T-Bird. I had someone scan it and was told I needed to replace the rear o2 sensor. Got the part, got the car up on blocks, but now the problem is I can't seem to find it or a picture of where it should be online - Any ideas? Thanks Quote Selected
Missing o2 sensor? Reply #1 – May 19, 2009, 02:53:09 PM Engine size?There is no rear O2 sensor in these cars. There should be a sensor in the exhaust manifold for each side of the engine, provided you have a V-6 or V-8. Quote Selected

Missing o2 sensor? Reply #3 – May 19, 2009, 03:40:17 PM Yep one in each exhaust manifold. Should be on the top rear of each exhaust manifold. Quote Selected
Missing o2 sensor? Reply #4 – May 19, 2009, 04:01:24 PM If you know the code that was scanned it will tell you which side.Unfortunately getting an 02 sensor code doesn't necessarily mean the sensor is bad. Quote Selected
