These days, the mixture of fuel and air in your cylinders is controlled by a computer chip that’s optimized for your particular engine and vehicle. You know that the mixture needs to change when you’re accelerating or climbing a hill, so how does your car know what to do? The key element here is your Ford Contour Oxygen Sensor, which sits quietly in your exhaust stream and reads what’s coming out of the engine in terms of unburnt fuel and unnecessary waste. It’s constantly checking, and it sends a signal to the computer, which adjusts the mix until your Ford Contour Oxygen Sensor shows that things are running just right, for maximum power and fuel efficiency, no matter what kinds of constantly changing demands you make on the engine.
It’s a great invention, and it saves you gas, but it doesn’t last forever. When you’re getting hesitation, stalls, or are noticing that your tailpipe emissions smell like gas, you’ve very likely got a burned out sensor, and you need to fix it right away, because the fuel you waste costs a lot more than this little part.
Without this little electronic nose, your computer is making important decisions with no information, or the wrong information, so it’s no wonder you’re having problems. All you have to do is take out the old one and put in the new, and because we’ll make sure that the Ford Contour Oxygen Sensor we ship to you matches the one it’s replacing, your car will fire right up and run clean and strong like it always did with no further adjustment.Just place your order today, because you can’t afford to have your car run like this any longer.
