WB sensor installation angle
My AEM UEGO installation manual says that the sensor should be installed at +10* from horizontal minimum to prevent water pooling and shorting the sensor. The bung that was factory welded into my Begi downpipe puts the sensor about 10* BELOW horizontal. Is that enough to kill it? If so, I can weld one right on top and clear the tranny, but if I don't HAVE to pull the thing apart to do it, I would prefer to leave it. It looks like they did it to allow the sensor to clear the tranny on the bottom.
So, is this a MUST DO? Am I going to suffer early sensor loss?

Good point. I don't have a spare 18x1.5 mm plug handy but I do have an old narrow band in an old stock ehaust laying around. I can just cut off the wires. Ghetto, but it's what I have on hand.
