o2 sensor

[taylor1]

My inquiry is if an o2 sensor will degrade. I removed mine @ 15 years ago when I put a Laser cat elim. exaust on my bike.

At the time , the o2 had around 6,000 miles on it. I sealed it up in a zip lock and stored it in a box.

This spring I am going to reinstall it along with the ccp and am wondering if it could have gone bad while in storage.
It would be nice saving the $$ if a new one is not really needed  Thoughts ??

Thanks

At only 6,000 miles it should still be OK. They don't go bad by sitting as long as they are somewhat protected & sealed from contamination.
