so it coudl be the o2 censor cuasing me troubles,

wild i will tyr a fuse liek u suggested

if i replace the O2 censor this shoudl stop the problems?
what does a o2 censor cost?

I know of 3 people that had this exact thing happen to them  on 8 valve trackicks. Thats the fuse it blew and it was the 02. $50 or so to replace if you do it yourself. Double check and see if your o2 has 3 wires comming out of it. 2 wires will be the same color, they are the preheater. Those 2 wires can be cut and the o2 will still work, it just wont have a preheater.

wut does the pre- heater do?

and my check engine light is on now, cars running fine minus the fuse blowage, is this cuz of the censor probly?

It preheats the o2.   I dont know when or why! Wild probabally knows though!

Id just unplug it and see if it happens again, if not then we have a winner!

Mike

No unplug the o2

Ya. I know

The pre heater or just heater
keeps the O2 sensor at a constant
temp, and gets it there faster so
emissions are lower, especially at
cold startup

Wild

i dont really care about my emmissions so i think i will cut the 2 pre-heater wires and see if that works, or acutally ill take out the sensor for a bit and see if it works, if it does, i will cut the wires

Don't cut all of the wires  
your trucklet will run badly
and use too much gas, you
can cut the heater wires or
replace it with a 1 wire sensor
from a wrecked car, much cheeper

Wild

ya sorry, i ment cut the 2 pre-heater wires like mike suggested, first im gonan try driving it wiht out the o2 censor in and see if it keep blwoing fuses

Ahh, I missread your post
