IIRC you have 3. 2 in the exhaust manifolds and one in the cat converter. passenger side one is hell.

is it the 2-wire or three-wire version?

Re: first time changing my 02 sensors

2 wire, so it will cost a lot of monies.

3.4 ftw.

Re: first time changing my 02 sensors

You have 4, one per manifold, pre AND post cat.

BANK1 sensors are the ones that read the air fuel mixture. one for each side of the engine.

BANK2 sensor is the one AFTER the catalytic converter and it measures emissions.

you have 2 bank 1 sensors. get a sensor removal socket.

Should have three Bank 1 sensors, one Bank 2 sensor. Thats how my 97 was. my 95 I don't *think* has 4, but its also a 3.8l with a rewired 3.4l harnass.
