As in "noxious."

Well, that was the "Check Engine" light. The NOX sensor, a part of the ignition computer loop that sets timing and such. Not something I can ignore, especially since that car is going to need a round trip down to UNH at interstate highway speeds next month, delivering Younger Son back to grad school along with more Stuff for his apartment.

A little under $300, to keep a '95 car on the road. A car that only gets about 2500 miles on it in the course of a year. Classic example of American wasteful habits, two cars for two people, all that Green chic rant. Hey, at least we are responsible enough that our two mini-SUVs average 25 mpg.

Addendum

According to the service write-up, that is actually "Knock Sensor" rather than "NOX Sensor." The machine has one of those _also_. Ain't English such a wunnerful language?
