Default Is it ok to drive w/o the front O2 sensors

Is it ok to drive w/o the front O2 sensors for a few miles or does the computer really need these for the car to run right?

Just for a short while, yes.

You'll prolly get a SES light.

Some cars (high modded) run open loop & don't use the O2's.

Yea it will be fine. I ran mine for about a day with out the front O2's pluged in. Just dont put them in the hadders and drive with them not pluged into the harness. It will burn them up bc the car will be running rich as crap. Probably not good on the plugs either. and it will set a SES light.
