  13. So do you remove your O2 sensor when the engine is hot or cold?
  14. Or if its really stuck, do you try heating the sensor with a
  15. torch when the engine is cold?
  16.  
  17. I had that carb problem a while ago, now I have excessive
  18. hydrocarbon emissions.  I am going to check to O2 sensor, among
  19. other things.  I suspect that the O2 sensor might have gotten
  20. fouled or even killed, because of overcompensating with the throttle
  21. when the engine lacked power (when mixture control solenoid wasn't
  22. working)
