So when I order from rock auto I need 2 upstream rear sensor s. Already did the front ones last year
Nope they're still called upstream & downstream with respect to the mini cats. There are 4 different part numbers for Front US, Front DS, Rear US, Rear DS. Front meaning the forward-most catalytic converter processing exhaust from cylinders 1-3

I got 104" of 1AWG cable and new brass terminals shipped for about $135. I priced at Lowe's, and 1AWG is over $1/ft here, and they would have to order it. Then I'd have to cut and assemble everything.

His prices are very fair; it's just an expensive upgrade.

(I ordered RXJ-242-D(1). B+ to starter, B+ to starter relay/distribution, B- to block, Block to firewall, B- to fender. All 1AWG for my Renix)

You have to loosen the tensioner.

I can't watch this video at work but it looks like it may help.


If that's not the right one I promise there's a video on youtube that'll show ya how it's done.

Just a thought.
I have never used the stuff but from what I understand ''Marvels mystery oil' is designed to free stuck lifters and such. Somebody with experience using it could chime in here.
