Oxygen Sensor (EGO)

This sensor constantly monitors oxygen content of exhaust gases. A voltage signal is produced which varies according to difference in oxygen content between exhaust gases and surrounding atmosphere.

This signal is sent to the ECA which translates exhaust gas oxygen content to air/fuel ratio. It then alters air/fuel ratio to hold the ideal ratio for current engine operating conditions.
