That's why you change the oil after runing the Techron through - to get
those deposits out of the engine quick. No one *ever* claimed that
Techron cleans the O2 sensors, only that the product itself won't harm
them. Nothing you pour in the top of the engine will clean the exhaust,
unless it's not combustible (this is why it's a *fuel system* cleaner,
not *exhaust system* cleaner); if you want to clean an O2 sensor, remove
it and clean it by hand.
