Hot O2 Sensor

Post by **otterman** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 7:52 pm

I have a blacktop (FAT) o2 sensor on my redtop (SKINNY), not sure if that matters or not. I replaced it with a blacktop because I bought a MR o2 housing.

Anyways, I had the o2 sensor unscrewed for a while (days) so I could reach some transmission bolts and as I was putting the sensor back in I noticed it was really hot. The tip of the sensor is hot enough you cant hold your finger on it long.

Is that normal?

yeah it was connected to the wires it just wasnt screwed into the o2 housing. It burnt the piss out of me cause I didn't know they were heated and I grabbed it.

We had the radio in my car on so thats why there was electricity to it.
