Anybody ever try these? I found the universal three wire, but I would have to cut off my old connector. Is it true that I may lose some of the sensors ability by splicing in the connector? I need to figure out why my truck only gets 12.7mpg in town completely stock.

Have you checked what our trusted vendors can provide? One such that I have purchased O2 sensors from is RoverGuy, www.roverguy.com Look under "LINKS" ...

I'd like to see somebody provide incontrovertible proof of this! I have installed countless numbers of sensors where I've spliced connectors to them with nary a problem.
That said, I have had major problems with getting the wrong sensors from a number of sources. I do not like it when folks who do not speak English as their primary language try to tell me I do not know what a Land Rover oxygen sensor looks like. With Will, you not only get great pricing and service, you get the correct part and he backs them up!

Hell, I would be happy with 12.7 in town. Odds are new O2 sens. are not going to up that much.

I thought I had problems. Is yours completely stock? I'm barely accelerating, with pissed off people on my bumper. Locally gas is almost $3.90 a gallon. I guess after a while only the hardcore guys are gonna be left driving these things.
I'm sure new sensors would help out some. It has a 186,000 and they have never been changed.

Cool thanks for the link. I haven't been interested in my Disco for some time until recently. Wife got the new car so I get this one. Plan is to make it trail ready and join in on the fun.

You're worried about near $3.90/gal gas, and you wanna "trail ready" your truck? You don't even wanna begin to think about those costs!

With the mileage you've described, you need oxygen sensors.
the fuel mileage is but one of the crosses we must bear to drive the best 4x4xfar.

Thanks PT I'm going to order from the above link here shortly. When I say trail ready I basically mean a mild lift, stock size tires with maybe a rear locker. For a beginner I would be happy with that for now. IF and when I became more serious mileage will fall by the wayside as the mods increase. As it is now I drive it in town more than anything. I know a few guys at work who I would follow along to learn from when the time comes.
