    I'm trying to replace what I believe is the 'downstream' Oxygen sensor in my 1995 Tacoma, 2.4L.

    Before I opened up the packaging I wanted to just make sure I am doing the right one.

    Upstream O2 sensor is the one closer to the cab right? And the downstream O2 sensor is the one further down...as in from the direction that the exhaust fumes flows.

    Downstream is after the catalytic converter.

    Pretty much stock right now
    Wasn't there only a downstream O2 sensor on the '95? IIRC, they didn't add the upstream A/F sensor until later. I've only had 2.7Ls though, and my '97 only had a downstream.
