I'd just rock the Check Engine Light till I got it tuned. It wouldnt be worth the hassle if youre getting it tuned in my opinion.

Yeah, I forgot about that, about a year and a half ago. I was strictly talking about making your own. There IS a way with some resistors between the wires but I wouldnt **** with it if I were you. Just get it tuned like youre going to already.

ive put 2 oil foulers on each side and then screwed the 02s into them, they work very good and are cheap. you have to drill 2 of them out so the 02 sensor with fit in it

On my dakota, I just plugged the hole and ty-wrapped the sensor up out the way. I tuned them out on my Chevy. Not sure if just pulling them out will work on the Chevys or not.
