o2 sensor and extensions Q's i got under my car today to try and zip tie my extensions some where so they would hang low to the ground.
1)is it ok to zip tie them to fuel lines???
2)im pretty sure its ok but just wanna ask..one extesion is touching the oil pan, itll be fine right??
3)i noticed that both o2 sensors are some what warm, car has not been turned on since last night. is that normal?

Zip tie it to anything that's not hot. I have mine ziptied to the starter wires on one side, and to the clutch line on the other. You won't have a clutch line, but you can probably find something.
How warm is "warm"? They should be ambiant temp if the rest of the car is.

well lets just say that the header collector is cold and once you touch the o2 sensor you feel the diff. you could probably keep your hand on it for a bit w/out getting burnt

HMM. Well the O2 sensors have heaters, but I don't really see the wire heating up unless there was a problem, and they should not be drawing any juice with the car turned off.
Did you have plug-n-play extensions or did you cut/splice your own?
