Hi Guys my TJ Series II (180K)has been getting poor fuel economy for some time
Last year I had installed a Redback sports system (original was rusting out anyway) K&N Airfilter serviced on time every 15K, Timing Belt done at 100k, Rocker cover gaskets done at 163K
Someone mentioned I should try changing the Oxygen sensor
Apart from Genuine (I suspect to be costly).....Can someone Recommend thru experience which is the better
I checked ebay does anyone recommend any of these

Online I have found prices from $59 ~ $125 Plus Freight
Is their a highly recommended one or for that matter one to avoid?
BTW I live on the Gold Coast
I Plan on replacing it myself, I found a picture somewhere here that it is locate don the passenger side underneath the carpet
Is their anything I need to be aware of
ALSO
I thought by disconnecting one of the Battery leads for a minute or so would Reset the ECU
Is this correct?..........as it turned out it was the NEG- Terminal
I also read somewhere that it has to be the POS+ terminal for at least 30Minutes
PLEASE advise which is the Correct way to Reset the ECU
Another thing form time to time I get the little Spanner symbol on the left of the odometer appearing every 15 ~ 20k so each time I just disconnected Neg terminal to reset
CHEERs
Thanks for your advice in advance
