Most cars will not pass emissions with out them. some places may also want the catalectic convertor on the car.

O2 sensors are tricky. sometimes like anything else they fail. many times though the exhaust mixture they encounter is out of their range and that shows up as a failure.since you seem to have no other problems , I would go ahead and change them, but don't be disappointed if the code shows up again (at least you know it's not the sensors.) I don't like using the process of elimination when doing repairs but sometimes you must.

SOURCE: 92 Jeep Wrangler MAP sensor bad?

This may not be your MAP but your Catlettic Converter. I also own a 92 Wrangler and had some of the same issues. My issue was actually a couple of things but they all came from a crack in my exhaust headder.

You may want to check your exhaust headder for cracks. If there is even a small one, (which are VERY common w/ YJ's) than your O2 sensor is thinking that the engine is running too lean. Therefor telling the fuel pump and injectors to dump more fuel into the engine. Well, truth is your not running too lean, in fact, you begin running too ritch.

The unburned fuel that is now comming out through your exhaust collects on the porslen screen inside your catalettic converter where it burns off, causing the screen to melt together. Resulting in a clogged cat.

The only way to fix this is to replace the ehaust headder (welding the crack will not work) and replacing the cat. This would explane your loss in gas mileage and power, due to over back pressure. The ticking sounds like the back pressure working on your valves.

Hopefully I'm wrong and this is not your issue because it is a very expencive repare. You're looking at around 350.00 to 500.00 just for a good headder and atleast 250.00 for the cat. However, an easy way to test this is to take a flash light and have a good look at your headder anywhere there are joints where pipes come together. Look for black, ashy spots above and around the joint. If you see this anywhere then I hate to tell you but this mite just be your problem.

SOURCE: location of the o2 sensor

Just follow the exhaust pipe from the engine and the first one is located just below the exhaust manifold,The second is just in front of the catalytic converter.

SOURCE: jeep wrangelr Crank Position Sensor

wall5552: there were two engines used in 1992 Jeep Wranglers.
A 2.5 liter and a 4.0 liter. HOWEVER>>>> The location for the crank angle sensor is the same for both.
It is located on the bell housing up near the front at about the 10:00 PM position.
The Cam position sensor is located in the Distributor on both engines as well.

SOURCE: 2002 Grand Cherokee P0601 Error

P0601 is an internal PCM failure. It is not passing one of it's self-tests and the code sets. The only fix for this code is to replace the PCM.

Check for intake leaks, intake hose leaks, check mass air flow sensor.
02 sensors will keep setting off a lean code until the air problem is fixed.

Engine light on with P2096 code

Did you replace the O2 sensor after the catalytic converter? This code is set by the rear O2 sensor. It usually indicates early failure or restricted catalytic converter. May want to have an exhaust back pressure test performed.

How many front 02 sensors does a 2000 cad deville have?

There will be two primary O2 sensors, one on each exhaust manifold (one for each bank of cylinders in the engine). There will also be one behind each catalytic converter (used for assessing how well the cat is functioning).

Catalytic converter

HI, this guide will help you with this replacement.

Step1 Lift your jeep. Unfortunately, the catalytic convertermag-glass_10x10.gif sits about midway down the length of your jeep, so lifting one end or the other will not do. Ramps are your best bet to get you within reach of the parts when working from home. Luckily, this is usually the hardest part of this repair. Step2 Be patient with the bolts, as they are often hard to remove due to size and awkward placement. You may have to drill or saw bolts to remove them. With this in mind, you should pick up new bolts, nuts and seals for your replacement project. Step3 Buy a catalytic converter specific to your jeep to avoid extra work. A generic part must be welded into the jeep, while a vehicle-specific model comes pre-welded to the proper pipes for easy bolt-on installation. Step4 Remove the 02 sensor (with an O2 wrench) before unbolting the catalytic converter. Then, you should remove the pipe connecting the sensor to the converter. Depending on your exhaust system, you may have to remove more pipes before you unbolt the converter from the muffler. Step5 Replace the old catalytic converter with a new one. This should be the easy part, as you simply bolt the new part in place. Step6 Reattach the exhaust pipesmag-glass_10x10.gif and 02 sensor, and the basic job is done. Make sure you replace any cracked or rusty pipes while you have the exhaust system apart.

  • Catalytic converters often fall under a separate emissions warranty that lasts at least 7 years and 160,000 miles. Even if your car is out of its regular warranty, but it is a newer model, ask your dealer to replace the part for you free of charge.
  • Rent the O2 wrench or socket if you do not own one. Most auto parts stores carry this tool for rentals.
  • In many states, older (vintage) cars do not need a catalytic converter, so you can gut it or remove it completely. No damage will result from running a car without a converter.
  • Due to emissions standards, it is illegal to buy or install used converters.
Please rate and god bless:)

Diagnostic codes

p1133 O2 sensor insufficent switching (pre converter, left bank)

p1153 ) 02 sensor insufficient switching preconverter right bank

P0420) catalyst system efficiency below threshold left bank

P0151) 02 sensor circuit high voltage pre converter right bank

and p1460 unfortunately I don't have handy..... But REALLY sounds like you need to replace the Oxygen sensors in front of the catalitic converters... There is dual exhaust coming from the engine to one muffler in that truck, there are a total of 2 converters and 4 O2 sensors (1 in front of converter and 1 behind it on both of the pipes) Front ones are definetely shot!!!! Be prepared to put the rear ones in shortly after!!!!! they are about $80 canadian each at the jobbers and probably more at the dealer!!!!!
