WTF are you asking here? You have 1 thing in the title and 2 other things in the post.
1) Heated O2 Sensors have nothing to do with the EVAP System
2) Toasted means dead
3) EVAP "sensors" are not exposed to heat on the Ecotec

p0000002 something like that i have it written down in the car ill grab it later..... had it scanned at the parts store and the guy said there was an evap sensor throwing codes and a o2 censor on the fritz...... seeing how there is not cat it burned the o2 censor behind it... i was just asking if theres one that can withstand a higher temp... and wheres is the evap sensor located?
Get the codes. Evap code is probably P0440 or P0442. Could be a gas cap, or another part. Go to maintance forum and do a search. O2 sensor is probably P0420. Nothing to do with the sensor getting burned up. Since you have not cat there is not a big enough difference between the primary sensor and the secondary sensor, so it throws that code. If that is the case do a search in the maintance forum for O2 simulator. Get us the codes and we can help you more.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was totally lost by this post.
Oh and George...it's not nice to send nasty PMs calling someone a fag when they're just trying to figure out WTF your talking about so they can help. Instead of taking 2 seconds to post like you said you did maybe you should have thought it out a little better and made at least a little sense.
