Certain years didn't have O2 sensors. It should plug into the exhaust pipe after the manifold.
If your's hasn't got one, don't worry about it. Try unplugging the AFM (the 3 or 2 pin connector coming from the air filter) and see how it runs. Most Starions do not require an AFM to run, and some years run better without it.
They sure are strange cars, and to be honest I'd change the fuelling and ECU if you can't suss it out. | |
