How can i run the vehicle safely without a o2 sensor in the cat ?I have a 97 honda civic ex, can i run the vehicle safely without the o2 sensor in the cat convertor ?It will wiast a lot of fuel with out the 02 sensor.I have a 97 honda civic ex, can i run the vehicle safely without the o2 sensor in the cat convertor ?Yes it can run but not very well. The oxygen sensor reports live information about the engine's air/fuel mixture to the powertrain control module. This information is used primarily to help calculate fuel delivery to the engine, which changes continuously while it is running. If the engine is running lean, the powertrain control module will sense this from the oxygen sensor's signal and increase the air/fuel mixture to the engine. Conversely, just the opposite occurs when the engine begins to run rich. On OBDII-equipped vehicles, the sensors are also used to help determine the efficiency of the catalytic converter. The powertrain control module does this by comparing the signal of the sensor located at the inlet of the catalytic converter with the signal of the sensor located at the outlet of the converter. Remove the O2 sensor and you can experience poor gas mileage, a failed emissions test, "rotten-eggs" smell from the exhaust, poor acceleration and more. Install a new O2 sensor.I have a 97 honda civic ex, can i run the vehicle safely without the o2 sensor in the cat convertor ?no you will be getting codes sent to the engine to change the running of the engine.
