Finally pulled the finger out today & fitted 2 new O2 sensors to the GV. I now have no light telling me there is a drama & it runs noticeably better.  Have couple hundred K run tomorrow so we shall see what the fuel economy is at now. Was originally 12.5 per 100k, changed one out for a spare I had it went down to 11.8 per 100k. Heres hoping for high 10s at least.. |

pulled the finger out & polished the cloudy crap off the headlights, fitted some new xenon 90/100s, adjusted 2 doors & even changed the viscous fan. Not a bad little day. |

I've relayed & upgraded my headlight wiring, put in some +80% bulbs but still not happy with the light output. Who did you buy your lights from? |

How the hell did you remove the O2 sensor? I picked up one from repco, but it feels like it is welded tight to the exhaust Sorry noob here |

They can be tight bastards, but you just gotta keep pushing till it lets go. |
