Cadillac Eldorado Oxygen Sensor
The Oxygen Sensor is a crucial component of Cadillac Eldorado cars as it regulates the amount of remaining oxygen in the exhaust emissions so as to enhance the proportionate mixture of air and fuel in the vehicles for superior performance and less polluting of the environment. It produces a voltage signal in relation to the level of the oxygen present and this signal is used by the engine control computer to alter the pulse wide of the fuel injector. It also provides this engine function as a feedback system called 'Closed loop' thus improving the efficiency of the catalytic converter. Most Cadillac Eldorado versions use zirconium dioxide for oxygen sensors that can be either narrow-band or wide-band. The narrow-band sensors give the inputs in the form of rich/lean signals and the wide-band sensors give a wider range inputs of the air-fuel mixture. The main difference is in the work range and the method of signal generation, and the sensors of the wide band provide more accurate information. However, they get contaminated with time and thereby cause higher emissions and a potential problem with the vehicle's performance.

Cadillac Eldorado Oxygen Sensor Parts Questions & Experts Answers
A: The oxygen sensor is a device that produces a voltage when exposed to oxygen in the exhaust gases. It is in the exhaust system and can be heated internally for faster reaction. The sensor produces a voltage between zero and one volt, with a low voltage indicating a lean mixture and a high voltage indicating a rich mixture. The stoichiometric air to fuel ratio causes the voltage to fluctuate.
