Im in dire need of a threaded O2 Sensor at the moment....id like to be able to drive down to advance auto parts and pick it up tonight.... what is compatible?
What THREADED O2 Sensors Will Work?
- Thread starter Idealsupra
- Start date
i picked up a 1990 mustang lx 5.0L o2 sensor. 3 wire, threaded right in. its easy to hoook up, because its the same as our cars, 2 colors of one wire, 1 of the other. i dont remeber excately what wires go together, but its easy, just match the 2 colored ones with the 2 colored ones.

yeah i had completely forgot about the eas and availability of the mustang o2 sensors...just called my local advance down the street and they have one left so i told them to hold it for me... 40 bucks...new o2 ...works for me...
By the way, all the threaded 02's I've ever seen (like 100's) are the same thread size. When I needed one for mine, I just called up Carquest, and they carry them in stock, $36.:biglaugh:
Any universal 3-wire bosch sensor will work (as a threaded -- not for stock fitment). You should be paying around $25-$35 for one that is universal. A little more for one that is intended for an application (with a plug on the end of the wires)
you can go to www.jblmk3.com and get an adapter so you can use a bosch sensor in the stock location.
yeah i got it figured out...i just put a dp on my car that had a threaded bung on it rather then the stock two bolt.... i knew there was the mustangs ones i just wanst sure if there were different thread sizes or pitches that i had to make sure i got for the bung i had....
the mustang one went right in and it was 40.... i just soldered the stock o2 connector onto it and was good to go.... my old o2 sensor's heater was broken...so it took like 5 minutes or sometimes more for the car to "warm up" and be good to go....with the new one the heater instantly warms it and its much better
