Just a question after some research of the archives. I feel that my green O2 sensor input wire (sending voltage to the ECU) is shorting to the grounded shileding in places from deteriorating insulation. I plan on replacing the sensor itself soon and am thinking about replacing the cable also. The archives have several listees stating that unshielded cable should work okay so long as there is no EMI in the vicinity of the cable (I'm concerned about possible interference from the coil). I am wondering if anyone has replaced this cable and if so where did you find this small gauge coax type cable? How far did you go with the cable and did you spice it into a good section of the original near the ECU? A far fetched idea that I had recently when installing a Sirius radio in my Dad's Honda was that the shielded satellite antenna cable would be a close match if the center wire was stranded. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated as always. David Clarkson 90 Westy (266k) **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
