aftermarket lambda sensor
hi my car is a 95wrx the lambda is not working correctly overfuelling has anybody fitted a universal one not sure if they would work or is there any body selling cheaper genuine ones thanks

I have just fitted a new aftermarket one for the same reason, ...old one is back on.
I bought it from API Engines, but I'm not at all sure about this.
Wish I had bought an Sti Subaru item.
The Aftermarket one cost £100 delivered and you have to crimp on the old connector too.

I just bought one off ebay for £20 including delivery works a treat, it was a 4 wire universal, the only difference is the 3 wire earths its self through the exhaust the 4 wire has a extra grey wire on it that needs to be earthed in the engine bay, like i say works a treat may not last as long as the more expensive ones but at £20 bargain

I paid £35 for mine and had to solder the old connector on.
Had to use silver solder but it works a treat. Been on for a good 10,000 miles. And the car just made 317.5bhp on a rolling road.

crimps can cause a small resistance in the connection. With the low voltages used it can make a differance. if you wanna crimp fit the crimp over one end then twist the wire ends together slide the crimp to the joint and crimp it. It would be best to use heat shrink sleeve as insulation and solder the connection.

crimps are often made of a poor alloy. In the case of thermo couples you have to solder them because of the dis similar metal current characteristics. In the case of some of the servo controlled machines i work on the control voltages are so precise that they need a wire to wire connection.

I thought i said that allready...LOL
Im proud of it!
Yes i am. Dont know everything about scoobs but my understanding is pretty good...I hope!
ive been doing this stuff for 17 years.
I was fixing motors when i was 8y's old. Started taking the wheels off when my dad was fixing a car. Then i progressed to wheel bearings and head gaskets. By the time i was 16 my DAD told me what he wanted fixed and went to put the kettle on.
I know i shouldnt brag but my Dad bought old skodas. I had a bunch of practice.
Till i was 8 i thought my dad was a car with feet comming out from underneath...LOL

My dad got me into cars when I was a kid too, but I'm far from **** and thus not an Engineer sorry couldnt resist! I bet you torque up your wheel bolts with a pre-set torque wrench

Defo not an **** engineer then, you can normal spot an engineer working on a car a mile off because I say they take the time to perfectly torque all of the wheel bolts
#21
no M8 a real engineer can feel the torque. LOL
This is funny were gonna get banned for spamming!
i must say though i would have to borrow a torque wrench to do stretch bolts...It pains me to say im not perfect!
