You are incorrect. It does indeed have an O2 sensor. Purchase a repair manual at most parts stores, ( around $12 ) for detailed instructions on this and many other repairs. Volvo calls it a Lambda Sond system, and the sensor screws into the exhaust pipe just after they come from the exhaust manifold
When a Subaru has a faulty O2 sensor the fuel management is out of whack.
A faulty oxygen sensor can make a car smell like gas. Oxygen and gasoline mixing wrong can cause excessive pollution. Replacing the oxygen sensor can correct this issue, and improve the gas mileage in the car.

Yes, it's.
32. 6 miles approximatly
The check engine light will illuminate. The code(s) will direct you to the faulty sensor.
There are many sensors that could be called the emission sensor for this vehicle, but I suspect you might be referring to the oxygen or O2 sensor. It will be found in the exhaust manifold, close to the connection with the exhaust pipe. Hope this helps!
could be numerous things, like a faulty oxygen sensor/a.k.a O2 sensor, a faulty mass air flow sensor. it all depends on what year make and model of vehicle we are talking about
No. It may run poorly but it will start and run.
Yes
most likely an oxygen sensor
It depends on whether you are in a state that requires Smog certification, and also by what you consider 'runs great'. A faulty Oxygen Sensor will never pass a Smog check, so if one is required to register the vehicle, you have no choice. Just because a vehicle seems to 'run great', doesn't mean that it actually is. I would suggest replacing the sensor as soon as your finances will allow. That sensor is an integral part of the emission system, and the emission system an integral part of the overall performance of the vehicle. Garbage in, garbage out my friend. = )
