    Can I change this w/o draining any coolant? If I am quick with a cool
    engine, I think that only a couple of ounces will leak out.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks, Scott

    if you have everything ready you will loose only about a cup or two of
    water. I just changed mine in a 92 sl2. This sensor will cause your mileage
    to drop way down if bad. Mine was getting around 16 mpg. It causes the ox
    sensor to read about .9 volts like it is in the open loop all the time. I
    have 172000 on the clock
