FWIW, the Hayne Camry manual for 2001 states that the 2001 Camry was the first Camry to use a Air Fuel sensor at the manifold instead of an O2 sensor.

The Toyota part 8946733020 you provided seems to be for an air/fuel ratio sensor. Thus, your car has California emission. It should be clear that a California emission car can be used in any state but not vice versa.

You would think. But 2 dealers have said no, it's not a Calif emissions car. SO i'm just going to replace by exact part # and hope that the part in there now is original equipment.

Check under your hood again. I checked mine last time and it said California even though the car was sold in VA.

The hood sticker said it's OK for all 50 states and Calif. Which, as Venn diagram logic suggests, makes it a Calif-compatible car. But the Toyota dealers say no. I'd tend to go with the VIN #, and it's coming up as an "all 50 states emission" car. Whatever that means.
ToyoDIY checked my VIN # and said it has a checksum error. WTF?
You can get an a/f sensor (Toyota part 8946733020) for $140 (including shipping) from ebay for your car. Good luck.[/quote]
