I know it's not recomended to use a wideband with leaded fuel. But how many hours of use would you exepct a new sensor would last with leaded fuel??

Here's what TechEdge say...

I guess its only an estimate but note their comments about silicones - remember the infamous Tesco/Morrisons incident - which proved to be correct after multi-million payouts when they contaminated their unleaded fuel with diesel silicones and destroyed a lot of wideband sensors about 3 years ago in the south-east.

I do know that the sensors are delicate, I dropped one of mine and it is now dead. Luckily there are replacements available for a not horrendous £65 on ebay.
