This isn't about a Ford truck, but I thought maybe it was appropriate for this forum.

Anyone know what could cause oxygen sensors to fail quickly? I replaced both oxygen sensors in our 94 Taurus SHO with Bosch units and they lasted about a month before failing. The engine runs strong and has great compression and low leakdown on all cylinders. No smoke and normal gas consumption.

Ken, have you run any fuel additives through the gas system? ....

Nope. Always run Chevron Premium fuel. I did use one of those fuel injection cleaning systems awhile back but that should have been cleaned out of the system months ago. ....
