Installed Walker o2 sensor a week ago. Works fine.

I replaced the front oxygen sensor last Sunday with a universal type from http://www.oxygensensors.com. $50 US. Shipped in about 5 days. Comes with instructions but not SAAB specific. The kit includes heat shrinks, crimps, and that copper anti-seize stuff. I started by removing the old sensor and wire harness attached to it. I did not want to crimp the connections as I feel it will not make the best possible connection. So, I soldered the wires. The voltage sent to the computer is about 0.45V to .95V. Can't remember wire colours off hand at moment but if needed let me know and I will post. Then applied the heat shrinks, and installed the sensor back on the car. Reset the computer by disconnecting the battery. Car has run great since and Check Engine light has stayed off. I have about 320km on the sensor now as I had a 170km business trip to do this morning. No indications so far that it is not working. So if you want to save some $$$ then give this sensor a try, but I do urge that the splice be soldered connections not crimped. Good luck. I hope I just did not jinx my self just now.
