Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen sensor. Is that the same as a lamda sensor? Should be able to unbolt it. 2 wires on the end, carefull the wires can be
Damaged or break from the heat/oil/road crap.

Would carb cleaner be OK to clean it ? Does the sensor work of a 12V supply so I can check the wires.
Thanks

no, ultrasonic bath to clean.

iirc, 2l ones are 5v - might be wrong though

Hi, Ok I got a Ultrasonic cleaner (usually used for doing bike carbs), I usually use petrol first (a bit bad as it gets hot) then water/washing liquid to rinse it off. Have you any recomendations for doing this lamda sensor ?
Cheers
