leveled out? Explain this as this is NOT the proper operation of an oxygen
sensor. Once warmed up to 600+ degrees F (they have built in warmers that will
get that hot way before the actual exhaust pipe does - in a matter of minutes if
not seconds due to federal emissions requirements)....once warmed up, they
should oscillate rapidly between 0-1V as this is the strategy of the PCM. If it
doesn't - you have a problem w/the sensor, PCM, or your scanner just flat SUX!
