God I love owning 1-wire O2s. Everyone here swears by Delco (GM brand) and nothing else.

I have 2 new bosch in mine atm. We'll see how long they last.

You know they go out by hooking a scanner up to your car. They have a mV reading. My right one was dead-dead. It pretty much sat at 125mV and they are supposed to fluctuate from 400-900. If they're in the lower range all the time, they're going out.
