If you want, clear the code, swap your O2's and see if the issue follows the O2. If so, replace the O2.

Good luck.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot! I'll let you know what happens. But because of this issue My car is loosing a lot of power due to lack of fuel going where it needs to go. With my mods I can barely spin tires right now, and it use to be simple as u kno. I get more help here then sn95 forums. Your lucky if your thread even gets looked at.


p.s. Anyother opinions?

Its always good to change both O2 sensors when one goes bad. The other is usually not far behind.

when i had that problem, the cause was a bad exhaust leak on only one side (stupid me forgot to completely tighten the x pipe to the collector).

Was your car running like it had lost half its power?? I cant spin tires like it did 2 months ago. with my mods it should be as easy as 1 2 3! Also, any particular brand in o2 sensors... And do I just unhook the battery, put new ones in and done? Or do I need to clear the code somehow? My H-pipe also raddles sometimes and sounds like the left pass side Cat is burnig up inside.

Mine was just getting REALLY bad MPG and throwing a CEL at WOT on the HWY sometimes. No really noticeable power loss, and I dont have cats.

Igot the MAF sensor out too.. When I clean it do I just whipe down the tunnel or do I need to lightly touch the sensor its self with cue tip?

LIGHTLY touch the sensor if you'd like. otherwise, you may get away w/ just spraying it w/ electrical parts cleaner.

I'd NOT use RTV. I would not use anything that can break loose and get sucked up the intake tract. I recently had my screen/gasket delaminate (I like the screen's function but it doesnt fit the Mac CAI). I've been trying to think of a way to make the screen work without machining the CAI.
