I been noticing my car was running like shi* when id stab the gas... So I tookit in for a scheduled oil change and the guy told me my front O2 sensor was unplugged & had just been dragging the ground... Its greenconnected to a white wire. The guy that replaced my starter didnt plug it back in whenever he did what he did... So I wanted to know if that sensor bein unplugged would cause the car to throw the run lean code, throw off the A/F,and drive like crap whenI stab the gas??????

Simply yes it will throw the code but the Heated 02's only tell the eec that the computer is lean or rich (on or off / 0,1) If you are getting a lean bank or cylener I'd try changing out your plugs too.

It's about $50 from Autozone, and you can install it yourself with a wrench in your driveway.

but how are you getting a lean code if the sensor is unplugged? i'd expect malfunction code [&:]

7/8's/22mm and I changed mine this morning. It took me longer to find my jack handle than it did to change my 02.
