The Check engine light was on in my 1999 Eclipse Gs and
i went to Advanced Auto Parts and they checked it for me
and told me it's the Oxygen Sensor on top of Engine (O2)
and it's about 99 for my car since it's a 2.0L
and i was wondering what would happend if i just drive it like this for now ?? until i get the money to buy it.....
does it have any effect on the car ??

it will lower gas mileage and can affect preformance but the worst damage is it can damage cat convertor and those are nto cheap at all like in the ballpark of 4-500 dollars.

It makes your car run rich or lean. You can remove it and wire brush it. Or put a resistor in place of it with the right ohms.
You can always lie to a computer to make it run right.

Your car won't break down. Just get it done ASAP!
