Hi,

The upstream O2 sensor is at the rear of the engine and mounted on the exhaust manifold. I attached a pic below showing the location.

On this vehicle, there are two sensors, an upstream and a downstream. The downstream is after the catalytic converter and the upstream is before it.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

take care,

Joe
