Some older cars used 1 but if you have 2 fitted,the first one ie nearest the turbo in the downpipe or (header pipe) controls the fuel mixture,the second one down checks the release gases are ok in simple terms.So if you have over fueling probs check the highest one up this is the one that will cause a rich mixture if it fails.
