Hey everyone
I went to go back my celica in the garage last night and as I walked behind the car I got a strong smell of petrol :s My assumption is the O2 has gone bad (as my fuel consumption has gone up slightly) as well as idle is rough sometimes. How can I easily (and cheaply) diagnos a faulty O2 sensor ? mines a 3sfe Thanks -------------------- ![]() |

Would give eBay and Amazon a look, or any wholesale auto parts place. Not sure if RockAuto would ship to you but I think I've heard of those in Europe ordering from them before. One would think it'd use the same sensor as the 5S-FE over here but would have to double check. Something you can try before replacing the sensor is to pull it out and blast it with intake cleaner and remove all of the build-op and then put it back in one dry.
