with any luck the catalytic converter is still switchin' poisonous CO gas into CO2 and water vapor~ once you get the O2 sensor in....take it for a long drive~...this may clear the catalyst~

Why did you not replace the sensor than all you are doing is more damage unless the car has that any miles on! after that who cares?
