Question…

I only have 2 Oxygen Sensors in this vehicle. One Upstream and one Downstream.

If I were to change the Upstream should I change the Downstream as well??

Why I’m changing my upstream you ask??

I am seeing noticeable affects off the vehicle running rich. Too much gas consumption than normal

    You don’t have to do them both at the same time. Make sure you don’t have any exhaust leaks prior to the upstream as that could be the issue, if it is the issue. I would check for codes with a scan tool. If you have a bad O2 sensor, the scan tool should tell you.

        A simple scanner would be enough to tell you if you have a bad O2 sensor, the fancy scanners are not needed for that. I would bet on your O2 sensors being ok. One thought that came to mind, is your temperature sensor ok?
