you may also need a new cat converter because the voltage you are reading is a rich condition and it could be a casualty of the rich mixture, and no problem

Holy cow, don't complain if you got that much mileage on it. Good call on the cat, didn't think of that one.

Has the exhaust system ever been worked on? If it is stock you probably need to change it out.

PM Kolak here and get a quote for o2 sensor and hi-flow cat.

Do you do your own work?

Shoulda answered this one. That is actually a normal price for o2 sensor. Dealer will be more expensive I think, but not much more.

but is there a big difference if i buy it from a dealership? =/ also the exhaust is stock its been kinda loose lately, kinda hanging low, we been tryin to fix it so it doesnt bang against the metal when it goes reverse but yea. i dont have experience buyin a whole new exhaust system. but w.e. u suggest is good for my jeep. i'll trust. lol

The difference is the dealership will sell a mopar unit. I bought a bosch and apparently the jeep doesn't like it. Again PM kolak for an exhaust system.

ok. last question. lol sry if im buggin u a lot. but my dad tends to solve all his sensor problems by removing the battery plugs so the check engine light is gone, which is stupid right?? obviously because all you are doing is deleting the data in the computer that reads there's a faulty sensor correct? but lol this is what keeps throwing me off, now my jeep is driving correctly today. so what gives!??! XD is my computer just being retarded??

all that does is delete the adaptive memory in the ecu. once the computer goes through about 50miles of driving, if the code wasn't a "holy crap this is bad!" kind of code (which will come up immediately)it'll pop right back up.

the downstream O2 sensor is telling you it's running too rich, the fact that your vehicle sometimes starts to stall like it's plugged up points to a bad cat.
a good high flow cat will be about 70$, kolak would love to sell you his exhaust but summit has decent pricing on aluminized exhaust which is the same pipe kolak sells just with slightly "worse" bends.
