O2 Sensor Connector Crumbled, $1300 Replacement Part???

I wouldn't worry too much about the connector. Many believe that there is no problem pulling reference air from the engine compartment and I subscribe to this. However, you are definately wise to make sure the connection on the sensor side of the wire is not soldered or sealed so that air can enter the wire.

Good luck

Oh Damn!

I though I was being a good DIYer by heat shrinking and effectively making it water proof the male bullet connector to the sensor side of the connection. Crap!

OK, need to expose.

I dunno if this Louie fella is still making these but it seems like a good solution to the problem that doesn't involve Home Depot. Just sayin.
