Really dumb idea.

Is that Avon Park or Avalon Park?

the ECM wont go into loop mode without the sensors input and faking the signal is a very bad idea...better to just leave it unplugged than to fake it...

put the duals on a weld a bung for the sensor...a 14mm nut will work...thats what I do...

Go to the hardware store and get a Grade 8 nut or equivalent that threads on the O2...cut the hole and weld it on...then chase it with a tap to make sure...install and plug in...all good

I wasn't trying to be rude, but I see where you would have thought that.

No, I'm in Avalon Park. I've heard of Avon Park but have no idea where it is.
