Something to keep in mind for O2 sensors, seems to be a common issue. That is why they make a O2 sensor thread chaser for less than $10.00.
Got one, used it and was able to put the sensor in without the extender.

SHRTFT1: -7.8 and varies through the spectrum
LONGFT1: 0.0 this does not change, I reset the ECU, restarted repeatedly, took it up on the highway... stays at 0.0
The SHRTFT1 on the other hand, as I said goes through the spectrum mostly negative numbers.. all the way to -25.0 depending on the driving.
Columbus day so no emissions check, will do that tomorrow.
