    How bad is it to run with only 1 O2 sensor??

    we put long tubes on a friends 89 lx, he forgot to order the extensions, so i bought some wire $4, connectors $2 clipped and extended his. never had a problem. even on the dyno, air/fuel was correct. those extensions are pretty high. good luck

    screw the power steering... what now?

    shorty, i dont have personal experience, but have read from more than a few folks that their rack seemed fine running everyday (some for more than a year) with no pump....so i guess i would perhaps be prepared for it to fail, but hopefully it would be ok. just my two cents worth...

    screw the power steering... what now?

    i wasnt doubting you, just wondered if that was normal or just good fortune. i do not want to get rid of my power steering, but would be more than willing to spend 10 minutes changing a belt out. does it not have any adverse affect on the rack or anything without the assistance?
