2 Oxygen sensors in 1993 Accord? by cybercool

Hi all,
 
When I called autozone for a price check for the oxygen sensor, I was told there is two in my 93' Accord EX. And they're not identical on top of that. Is this true? Can someone reconfirm this?
 
Thanks
Cybercool

Yes, it has two oxygen sensors, one before the cat converter (the one you can see with the hood open, and one after (you have to get under the car to see this one). The one after the converter is a heated sensor (usually more expensive), and has three wires instead of two. Make sure to change the right one. Many aftermarket sensors (the cheaper ones) are universal, and do not plug directly in without splicing wires.

Thanks elroy5
 
You're very helpful. I can't really see the one before the cat converter with hood open. Maybe I'm looking at wrong location. I was told it's underneath and in front of cat converter. If I buy the parts (sensors) do you think it'll be expensive to replace? Do I have to replace both?
 
Thanks

I know this post is old but....Suggest you give it a shot of flammable liquid (starting fluid - not something stupid) in the intake to see if it starts up. If it does, then you KNOW it's a fuel delivery problem and you should check for a main relay failure or some other very common occurrence on our vintage of Accords.
 
good luck

Usually this problem goes away at high revs if it's a clogged EGR valve, but it's worth a check. Perhaps there was buildup in the intake and you dislodged it (or some of it) directly into the EGR valve. It happens. Disconnecting/removing/replacing the EGR will let you test out this theory.
 
Cleaning out the EGR (soak) and it's assorted passages (poke) is a summer project due on my baby, so I'm with you in spirit until it gets a bit warmer

I agree, a fluid change (to the right one - ATF-Z1) made my Accord's shift characteristics a whole lot nicer but it's not going to regenerate mechanical damage.
 
I doubt a flush is a good idea, or necessary, on high mileage cars but you are crazy to NOT CHANGE at least some of the fluid at a time. What's the point of letting the stuff sit in there, lose all it's cooling/lubricity, and then shell out for a new tranny or ditch the car? Anyone who recommends that (barring some very special vehicular circumstances) should probably have the bottle taken from their hand and be given a spot to catch a nap.
 
As for "evidence", my vehicle is 205K using the drain and fill only method (I bought the car with about 100K on it already). Granted, Accords seem like they could run to 200K with rocks in there as lubrication but I think this is the smartest way to maintain the tranny. Then again, YMMV!

How do you know one of the sensors is bad?

Not really the correct forum, you should post in the group containing your model year ideally. And...I don't know.

Hi Angel Mrbill! You make sense about the lock-up of the steering wheel.- thanks for the explanation!
