    shouldve had nelson delete the back two o2 sensors, now you will prolly throw a code
    Today 03:25 am 6 stringer o thats a good point, its ok ill just add a blinker fluid cooler
    Today 03:24 AMtruckinL33 that's not a good place for it, you can overheat your blinker fluid with the capacitor
    Today 03:23 AMtruckinL33 i need them for when i go back to 1985
    Today 03:23 AM6stringer i mounted my flux capacitor next to my blinker fluid resevoir
    Today 03:22 AMtruckinL33 me too, right next to my flux compasator!
    Today 03:22 AM6stringer hey gear oil needs to be cooled, i have front and rear diff coolers

    Yes, on any 1996 or newer they only go by OBD-II and if your computer tells the machine it's okay, then you pass... assuming the guy doesn't look under it.
