I am a moron... Please help...
So I filled up with 110 octane yesterday... I know now that it doesn't make a difference, and I also know now that it's leaded. My SES light is on with about half a tank of leaded gas left in my tank. Here are my questions: Can I just run the rest of the 110 out since my O2's are probably fried already, or should I cyphen (spelling?)? I'm going to go to Advance Auto or somewhere to make sure the codes are for my O2's, what codes should I expect? And assuming my O2's are done for should I replace with Bosch 13111's? Lastly, for purely curiosity sake, why do Corvette rear O2's work as front O2's in f-bodys? Thanks for any help... I'm retarted.

From searches it looks like I may get away with just buying new O2's, I read that it can ruin cats too, but I'm looking to go TD anyways so I don't mind if those are fried. It makes sense that much more could be wrong though. Anyone have feedback on what else could be ruined? God I'm an idiot...

Thanks for the replies. I did a little more research; I don't know how credible the sources are but I heard that the O2's may recover after a couple of tanks of premium. The cats are probably another story, but I'll take any excuse I can get to spring for a TD's. So it looks like I'll just dilute what's left with premium and hope for the best. And next time I go to fill up and the nozzle doesn't fit I'll take the hint that it's not meant to be...

if your really worried about it, there is some way to let fuel out of the fuel rail........ some race cars do it to take out normal gas and put in high octane stuff. id imagine it would take a while letting the pump work.
