NTK are made by NGK... both names will be on the box..

 

OK. I thought it was a typo but wanted to be certain. I'm planning a bunch of work on my truck in the next few weeks and hope to put the O2 on the list.

 

Yea I remember that post now, LOL. Just use the non foulers, don't worry about what brand that sesnsor is. Use your old one for that matter.

Its NTK, but NGK makes them. Or atleast brands them.

 

yup. my belt tensioner didn't swing back like it should. making my belts squeak like a son beach!

now i just need something for about $28 even to use the $50 off $100

guess i could buy $28 worth of black ice trees?!!!

edit: i'll just fill up my cart with random crap i always wanted like a magnetic bowl, mechanix gloves, and some other goodies LOL!

 

You should have bought a ujoint or a hub bearing or something like that.

 

Mechanix Wear M-Pact Glove Black Medium
Rain X 2-in-1 Windshield Washer Fluid (1 Gallon)
Dayco No Slack Automatic Belt Tensioner, Light Duty
Autocraft Magnetic Tray

all for $52

 

that might come later. i can't drop too much more in to her right now!

 

Should probably invest in a bottle or two of blinker fluid as well. Maybe even some muffler bearing grease.

Oh wait, wrong website. It's KaleCoAuto.com that sells that stuff. My bad.

 

Bosch sensors read slow, compared to NTK and Denso sensors. You can see the lambda swing with a good scanner, it's just slower. The Denso sensor has a larger opening for exhaust gases than the NTK sensor, so they might wear out a bit more quickly.

NTK is the sensor division of NGK, but same company. Denso makes the factory part.

 

That's interesting. The obvious next question that info raises is: would faster sensors offer some performance advantage? I don't know much about the control loop in these trucks but I've read that slow O2's are all that is necessary with my 5.0 ford for example. ie faster wont buy you anything.
