No way these will cost that much. About $120 or so mentioned is right. Check rockauto.com or your favorite local parts store.

The guy seemed to think it meant my oxygen sensor was shot, and with a pending inspection, I was trying to find the cheapest way to resolve the problem. The car has been running fine with the light on; gas mileage hasn't been off more than I'd expect for a car with almost 200,000 miles. I've heard estimates of around $600 for a new oxygen sensor. I've also heard that there might be steps that can be taken to "fool" the inspection machine into passing the car if you can get the codes cleared. Money's tight these days, and dropping $600 on a car that's still running fine as I can tell could be a problem for me right now. Any suggestions? Thanks very much in advance.
