E-bay  where else James. There are a couple of different codes for them, with the larger nos. referring to the lead lengths iirc. Long is good.

How much you wanting.

Might be ideal as im looking to see if mine is faulty. A/F mix is a little richer than normal over past few months.

i would buy a new one matt but need to source my problem as the air fuel gauge is reading 10.0 almost constantly. Might need a new lambda sensor for that now which aren't cheap.
