In the olden days, you used to spend a lot of time messing around with your carburetor, and it was hard to get it just right, because the engine’s demands change all the time, depending on what you’re asking it to do. These days, a computer chip controls your Ford Bronco’s fuel and air mixture, and I’ve got to admit, it just works better. You burn less of your precious fuel with every mile when the mixture is optimized, and you get power when you need it.

As they say, any sufficiently advanced technology looks like magic, but at least in this case, it’s not. Your Ford Bronco Oxygen Sensor sits in the exhaust channel and acts as the computer’s nose, smelling when you’re expelling unburnt fuel, or not getting enough gas in the mix.

Like any nose, it can have problems, and it gets knocked around a lot, considering the roads you drive sometimes. When your oxygen sensor goes bad, you’re hesitating, stalling, revving when you don’t want to – the whole system is just off, because your mixture is off. Your fuel economy drops dramatically, and the gas you waste costs a lot more than a new sensor. Besides, the abuse is putting a lot of wear on your engine and making your tailpipe stink. Your Bronco has a broken nose, and you need to get the part and fix it right away, because money doesn’t grow on trees, at least where I live, and it costs enough to drive a powerful vehicle without throwing fuel away through the tailpipe.
