Generic o2 sensor Bosch. -what about neihoff?

[cobram at juno.com]

Well, I got a Bosch Ox sensor from the local warehouse a few months ago,
came with three wires (no connector) and also had a small tube of anti
seize and three "crush" tubes (for splicing) and shrink tubing.

I have never had a problem with any Bosch Ox sensor.  A three wire Bosch
is a three wire Bosch is a three wire Bosch, same exact sensor with a
different harness, depending on the application.  Cheaper to buy the Ford
Application and cut off the Ford connector than to buy the one
sans-connector piece.

As soon as I find one, I'm going to permanently solder in a Ford female
connector to OEM cable, easier than splicing every time.

Next time you're doing one, order the Bosch 13913 (fits Thunderbird,
Aerostar, Taurus, Bronco II etc.) and compare the two, you'll find the
exact same part with a different connector.

I agree with you about using only Bosch sensors in our Teutonic beasts,
the only reason I mentioned the other brands was speculate as to why
Bosch has been dropping it's prices for these things.
