Default Help Me! O2 wires..

I am putting long tubes on my car and when i disconnected the front o2 sensor on the drivers side the plug broke. I am assuming it was from the heat from the manifold that made it brittle. Any how all the wires on the engine harness came out of the plug, so i need to know what order they go in in relation to the plug on the O2 sensor itself so they can be put back in the proper location. The car is a 96, so if someone that is feeling helpful would go have a look on there car and let me know i would be very thankful!

One more question... Will it mess up the resistance value if i lengthen the wires on the Oxygen sensor? I was planing on soldering about 12 inches of wires in there to make it reach the new location on the long tubes.

It is best not to do anything to the wires on the sensor side (it can cause issues with O2 performance). If you need to do any lengthening, do it on the body harness side.
