There are 4 oxygen sensors on the Windstars They are divided into 2 banks of 2.
- Bank 1 is the for the rear 3 cylinders of the engine
- Bank 2 is for the front 3 cylinders.

Bank 1 / Sensor 1 (upstream) is located just below, in the pipe, the exhaust manifold on the back of the engine.

REMOVE TIP: you may have to bend part of the transmission heat shield out of the way - be sure to put it back when done.

Bank 1 Sensor 2 (downstream) is located just past the drivers side catalytic converter. Bank 2 Sensor 1 (upstream) is located just below the exhaust manifold, in the pipe, at the front of the van - access is from the top. Bank 2 Sensor 2 (downstream) sensor is located just past the passenger side catalytic converter.

NOTES: * Use lots of penetrating oil - allow to soak - to make removal easier and avoid damaging the exhaust pipe

* The sensors are screwed directly into the pipe at a 90 degree angle and look like spark plugs with either 8", 12", or 14" wires attached to them

Is it hard to change the 02 sencer on a 91 chevy lumina & where is it located?

O2 sensors are not that difficult to replace. On that car it should be located on the exhaust system, under the car itself, likely just before the catalytic converter. It'll have a single wire going to it, that is in a fiberglass sleeve for heat protection.

This likely will not fix your whole problem though, it might help some. You could have a bad catalytic converter, or even a fuel issue that is causing the smog failure.

I took my 2000 pontiac montana to auto zone on saturday and they ran there little test on it cause the light was on it came up with both o2 sencers were bad but i have changed the back one twice last month...

When you had one go bad, it fixed the problem for a short while. Now both they say are bad. 02 sensors last a long time if the engine has regular maintenance. Most likely your catalytic converter is bad. This will cause, at first the rear 02 to show bad readings setting a code. And as the converter progresses to get worse, it will make both 02 sensors give bad readings, thus setting off the codes.

O2 sencer where are they located

The 02 sensor is located on the exhaust system. It should be a single wire sensor. You will find it between the exhaust manifold and the CAT.

Yes they are i would try and change the o2 sencer first.Because it says your system is running to lean or to rich. And that 02 sencer is the problem

Where is 02 sencer heater (bank 1 sencer 2) located

I believe your car only has a single catalytic converter. If that's the case, then your bank 1 sensor 2 will be the O2 sensor that's located after the Catalytic converter away from the engine
