Any issues with using the above as a replacement? They're the only thing I can find locally. Thanks.

Yes, I was just being cheap trying to save a few bucks. Autozone is about $25. AC Delco at a local dealership is $57. Order over the internet at $29 + $10.95 shipping. If I need to spend the money, I will, but if I don't, I'd rather not. Not sure what you mean by AFS-21,22? Thanks.

Those are the AC Delco part numbers.

I have been running the Bosch O2 sensor with the OEM connector from Autozone for years. They last slightly longer than an AC Delco purple wire O2 on straight 93 gas. Leaded race fuel is another story, but in my experiences, it still out lives the AC Delco. IMHO, it's the most accurate for the money you can buy. I do not like the Tomco or other brand O2 sensors.
If money weren't an issue, AC Delco 1st, Bosch 2nd.
I also run the Bosch because the Zone gives you a 1 year warranty on Bosch O2 sensors.

Bosch P/N 12014 $24.16.

I actually just installed a new Bosch this past weekend. The one I had in there had lasted me since Bowling Green and I ran about 25 gallons of C16 through it and about 35 gallons of 100 octane unleaded through it before it finally tripped a code. Well worth the $25 smackers IMO.
No matter what tho, you want the one with the OEM connector, because splicing the one that doesn't have the connector can cause slight voltage variations on a Scanmaster from my experiences.
Hope this helps.

Totally agree with Patrick, I get mine from murray's. The Bosch also seems easier to grab on to. I always run at least 110, and if its Torco the sensors seem to a last a long time but if its Turbo Blue or anything above 110 it eats them.
