Splicing 02 sensors
I saw a couple post that splicing in the 02 sensors creates problems or will not send a signal fast enough. I would use extentions but I bought a used harness and the connector is cut off what do I do?

They say you shouldn't, that the sensor harness affectls the oxygen
path. Seems like crap to me, I used to solder up extensions out of
speaker wire and use crimp connectors. But you might want to get
some connector ends from Casper's and do your extending on the
harness side leaving the sensor as-made. Just in case there's really
anything to it. On the vehicle side of the harness, wire is wire as long
as it can deliver the heater current without drop.
