  "re-animation" is near impossible without fould the osensor for the
rest of it's life. however, it should be under warranty and i know there
are places that can check them to make sure it's bad. too much oil in
the exhaust can foul the inner-working of a sensor and running too lean
can burn it to death. is there blue smoke coming from the exhaust? on
the other hand, it may be the sensors are fine, but the computer they
plug into is dead.
