YOu can get one of the universal ones for about $20, only thing is: You have to cut the old connector off and crimp it to the new sensor. There will be some easy to follow direction. Its and easy way to save $20-$40.

Modification is no problem. Just go to Napa or Vatozone and look for a universal for Saturn?? Or universal in general?

There should be no problems. Its the same sensor...just a different thread pattern. If you have any problems, then you got a bad sensor to begin with.

Okay, I figured as much considering they are both one wire sensors.

I may grab a new one and try it out. Thanks Sam.

With the installation of the OBX header I had to go to a '98 02 sensor as the 1st gen sensor was too small to fit in the OBX welded bung.

I am curious if this causes any problems for the computer to read as my air/fuel guage when I had the same engine w/92 header read normal (rich on WOT, and the normal fluctuation between rich and lean, etc..) and now with the same engine and the OBX with this '98 02 sensor, the A/F guage stays put in the stoich to rich range.

Does anybody have any input on this???
