I have a 1991 Corvette and the local chevy parts dept says I have 2 o2 sensors but I only have 1 on the drivers side?  Anybody else run into this?  And what was the outcome and please post a correct part#

just curious....  do you have an oxygen sensor code????     does you corvette have air injection????  if so.. you might want to test the diverter valve... make sure it is not leaking any uncommanded air into the upstream exhaust... (the upstream exhaust is the tubes that feed into the exhaust manifolds...)       when the air injection check valves go bad... they let HOT exhaust backwards up the air injection tubing and it melts the tip of the plastic diverter valve ... this lets air flow continiously into the exhaust manifolds and messes up the exhaust stream as it passes the oxygen sensors...

the computer commands the diverter valve to dump upstream air only for the first 60 seconds after a cold start or until the oxygen sensors start to respond...   it also commands it do dump upstream air during some deaccelerations and at Wide open throttle...  i have not studied the computer program.. i just know from all the years i have fixed cars and all the delco training classes i have taken over the years..

Thanks Wayne but I looked everywhere I dont see anything on the right side.  But thanks for the part numbers I will try them out.  I don't think I have air injection.  It's an L98 and looks like it just has tuned fuel injection with a throttlebody.

I had error code H44 and H45 on the left side.  It seemed to run better when the engine was cold.  I got a o2 sensor from kragen for now and it runs alot better but still idles rough after it heats up.  Any ideas?
