I am as frugal as anyone but ...
To decide on replacing an old sensor - first check the voltage pattern with Durametric or similar. That is more proactive than waiting for a code.
Once you replace the sensors you have eliminated that issue from future problem/code chasing. New sensors may last 10+years of normal driving.
There is the advantage of time saved from "while you are in there and have the tools/time off."
On my 2001 S Bosch sensors are $70 each x 4 .The older 97 .2,5 cars may be cheaper than that and they have only 2. Same reasoning for doing the coils/spark plug tubes also.
Getting a CEL while enjoying a drive is something I'll spend a little to prevent.I agree , it is a hobby not a financially logical issue.Ymev
