Do you know the importance of your Chevrolet Corvette oxygen sensor? The Corvette oxygen sensor is mounted near your exhaust manifold. As hot exhaust gases leave your cylinders, the Chevrolet Corvette oxygen sensor measures the oxygen content of the exhaust and sends the information to your car's computer. While your engine is running, the Corvette oxygen sensor obtains and transmits this information hundreds of times per minute.

Why is the oxygen content of your exhaust important? Your car relies on a mixture of fuel and oxygen to generate power, and your Chevrolet Corvette oxygen sensor ensures the ability to obtain the correct ratio for that mixture. When your car's computer does not know how much oxygen is in the cylinders, it will respond by injecting too much fuel rather than too little, just to be on the safe side.

This means, quite simply, that a faulty Corvette oxygen sensor wastes fuel. Furthermore, over time the excess fuel in your exhaust system as a result of a bad oxygen sensor will damage your catalytic converter. Your Corvette oxygen sensor may fail for many reasons, from contamination due to oil, antifreeze, or gasket sealant to simple wear over time through normal use. It is a good idea to replace your oxygen sensor whenever you have exhaust work done, since it can be difficult to detect a faulty Corvette oxygen sensor.
