hi guys, so here's my question, it appears that on my '95 850 GLE i only have 1 oxygen sensor on it. what i want to know is, if the sensor craps out, will i get the "CEL" light on the dash? or is it one of those things that you change after x amount of milage? thanks

If something goes wrong, yes, it will.

But you can try cleaning the O2 sensor first, instead of replacing it altogether. Hey, a dollar saved is a dollar earned, right? Maybe a dollar saved a day, and after prolly a THOUSAND days, then you can pay for the NEW turbo you've always wanted. HEHE. Ok, lame joke.

Anyway, if you search the forum, i've posted pics on how to clean the O2 sensor, using petrol. Cheap and easy.

Good luck.
