i just don't know???

my girlfriend '98 2.3CL has so many damn problems with it... and being the nice guy that i am.. i kind of have to tend to her vehicle as to mine also..

heres the problem:

o2 sensor bad.. wondering if anyone has a photo of the sensor (the one before the cat) she recently bought one online.. and it looked kind of wierd.. would like a comparsion...

second problem..
recently.. her vehicle has been having some kind of brake problem. i'm not sure.. seems like the calipers keep on clamping onto the rotors or something..

ex. coming off first gear.. second gear won't pick up.. as if the brake are still clamp or locked on.. this happens until about 10-45 second of lag..

anyone know what may be the cause of this.. i've checked the rotors/brake/calipers .. their fine..

Do you have good brake pressure? maybe master cylinder, my dad had a similar prob but he had no brake pressure like you have to push the break real hard to stop

dood, bleed the system. The brakes should not be sticking like that. Might be a good idea to get some new pads and get the rotors resurfaced, just to be safe.
Start with a flush and move on from there....

O2 sensors go bad... fact of life unfortunately. I think they are the same part number for both of them.
