Yeah they are plugged in, I took it to autozone and advance auto to get a code scan and they said they couldnt do it because its not the newer computer from the 1996 and up cars

Do you have a paperclip? If not, grab a berret from your girlfriend's hair when she's not lookin and use it to pull codes.

Make sure none of the O2 wiring was hurt during the R/R.

Good luck.

That can happen? I just put on a Catted Bassani X and my CE light turns on and shuts off 2-3 times a hour while driving. My friend did the O2's and he said it would help from siezing on. Which took use alot of Map gas to get the ones that were for a fox in there out!.. ****!.. if thats what it did that sucks!.. I re did all the EGR piping and everything too

I use neverseize on the O2's threads and havent had an issue with it affecting the readings. Seems to me that as long as you just put it on the threads, you should be fine.

Not really.





























Just kidding.

See here for assistance. Do note that the test connector on a 94-95 GT is ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE ENGINE BAY, BETWEEN THE FIREWALL AND BACK OF THE STRUT TOWER.

Good luck.
