Re: 89 Cherokee failed emissions - HELP!
 

Hi Randy,
Thanks for telling us. Yours is the first oxygen sensor I've heard
of the the Stealership eat, but then I've never heard of a recall on

WOW
That IS good news!
Did you keep the Bosch 02 to get your $$$ back?

Now I wonder if my XJ's or my parent's XJ's Bosch 02 sensors will go bad.

Way to go Randy!! :-)
