    My check engine light came on a couple of days ago; I have diagnosed a bad
    front oxygen sensor from the codes shown. How long/far is it acceptable to
    drive before replacing the sensor? I don't want to do any damage to the cat
    converter or rear sensor. Thanks.

    Well, IPD sells a new Oxy sensor and the wrench to DIY. There are two on
    the 850, I think. Performance & fuel economy will probably suffer, maybe
    long long term there may be cat damage, but I don't know really.
