O2 Sensor Current?

How would the ECM react or the O2 sensor react with a 1M from O2 sense to GND?

I will look into the Op Amp circuit, probably best way.

Has anyone on the list ever decoded the PROM on the 307 "Y" engine?  Is there an older version of code with less part throttle spark advance?  Can
someone program a chip for me?  I do not have a programmer that will burn the 27S181, I have contemplated adpating a different rom for it, I have one in
mine, (don't remember it right off hand) but is is nearly pin to pin compatable, but has 2 more than the 27S181.  I have a Data !/O 288A programmer.
Anyone use one?  It will not read my 27S181, anyone know how I can make it?

My long term prject is to TBI this car, I think it would be a great running car with a TBI on it, or better yet, SFI.

Thanks!
