Oxygen sensors weren't installed in vehicles until the Seventies. Back in the good old days when a gallon could be gotten for thirty cents, fuel economy wasn't really an issue, and nobody gave the subject of exhaust emissions too much thought. Times have changed, and we've learned a thing or two since then.

With gasoline now ten times what it was back in the sixties and air quality issues in the news, the Chevy C2500 Oxygen Sensor has become important to making our vehicles more environmentally friendly. A good fuel/air mixture is one that maximizes engine power while minimizing emissions and fuel consumption - it's a balancing act.

A leaner mixture means greater mileage and less stuff coming out of the tailpipe. There are times, however when you'll need to have a richer mixture - a greater percentage of fuel. If you're towing a heavy trailer, carrying lot of cargo, or driving in the mountains, your truck will need more gas. The purpose of the Chevy C2500 Oxygen Sensor is to measure the amount of oxygen coming through the exhaust system. Based on this data, it delivers an electronic signal to the fuel-injection system, causing them to make adjustments to the mixture for driving conditions. A damaged oxygen sensor will reduce overall engine performance - power and gas mileage will drop substantially, while harmful emissions will increase. If this is happening to your truck or Suburban, you may need a new Chevy C1500 Oxygen Sensor.
