The catalytic converter on my truck right now has only one O2 sensor on it but the cat is going bad, so I am getting a new one and the one I got has 2 O2 sensors instaed of 1 can I just leave one O2 sensor alone or do I have to have it capped?

If it has more than one port for the sensor, they should already be plugged.

Thank you for the info, do you think the bad catalytic converter could cause the exhaust system to go silent when I fully accelerate to around 2500 rpms
