I just recently installed headers and dual exhaust system on my 1990 ramcharger, the engine runs smoothly for a few minutes, but seems to want to shut off, is it possible to have an 02 sensor installed in one side of the headers?

Easy to do. Buy the b u n g****, drill hole, insert b u n g. Some are weld on some are fitted. Google 02 sensor b u n g, even Amazon has them.

The word police function on this forum is way past wound too tight. Friggin annoying, we aren't 12 years old. Time to turn the nanny off for Pete's sake.

You can even buy clamp on bungs if you don't want to weld a b u n g in place,all you do is drill a hole in the header collector and clamp the b u n g onto the collector,as Dean states you can even find them on Amazon.


edit: Dean you're right the word police on here are outta control :rolleyes:
