98 Cobra longtubes - oxygen sensor location

[GTCobra407]

Hey guys,

So we put the Cobra on a lift and checked the passenger side oxygen sensor which seems to be where all the codes are originating from.

We noticed the headers, which may be bassani longtubes, have the oxygen sensor on the outside of the collector towards the exterior of thr car and not inside towards the trans.

Is that the proper location for the sensors since it was pressing against the underbody and bent.

The sensor is bent? I’d think it’s safe to say that is the cause of your problems. Some sensors are shorter than others, so you may be able to get a different brand that will fit. I think the body of the NTK sensor is smaller. Those are the sensors I recommend anyway.

Cool, I will try and look into ntk.

The only consideration for O2 sensor placement is never at the 6 o'clock position due to condensation build up during periods of inactivity.
