Default C16 o2 sensor test

Well, the results are in.
I ran 2 tanks of c16 (yeah-HIGHtest) and pulled the wideband.
It was COVERED with ****.
I just pulled it after 2 tanks of 93/25% xylene.
Clean as new!
I was told to try this by my buddy (NHRA record holder - for real, not an "internet" record holder )
I didn't believe his hillbilly ***, but he was right.

yeah,

With c-16 your new wideand O2 will last 10-20 hrs of engine run time before you have to toss it , cleaning does help but after 20 hrs it's a toss up ....

But if your running tire pressure type boost it is much better to use than your current mix, your choice the sensor or the engine .....

Surely you confuse me with someone else - I am very conservative with the boost.

Yeah, that will be good on your setup to 20 psi.

Yes it is. I have run C16 through a car with two widebands for well over 100hrs. and have no issues what so ever. Sensors are clean.

Too bad.
