Default I think Mike tried to make one once. IIRC

however, the resistance isn't constant like on American cars, the signal pulses.

The man himself will be able to tell you.

it's not that big of a deal. The 02 sensors reach the new location (except funkadelic's) =D

Default Try searching, I remember reading about someone trying to use one (m)

Seemed it did not work very well.

Do you need to pass an emissions test? I failed NJ emissions in my Jeep for high NOx and subsequently determined the downstream O2 sensor was dead. I did have a CEL but thought I'd give it a shot (inspection is free at a state run center). Once I replaced it, I passed.

My point is that the downstream O2 sensor does serve a purpose and without it, you may or may not pass emissions. Better off moving the sensor while the pipes are out of the car.

that's true. MD does have inspections every two years. I just got my notice.
