    Heated O2 sensors - dumb question

    Can I just unhook them? I don't have the spare cash to fix them for a few weeks and the intermittant rough idle/crappy mileage is ticking me off. Will it improve the idle by unhooking them or will it be worse?

    99 xlt fuel pump

    This is not critical because everything works, but I just noticed this yesterday and I am perplexed how it could have happened. When it is in Park, the indicator is halfway between the P & R and so on down the line. I have no clue how this could have happened. Is there something on the...
