I installed these 3 things at the same time on my 1999 GT, and also used some DIY mil eliminators to hook to my rear O2 sensors to make sure I didn't get a check engine light.
Well, after installing all of this, I have severe idle issues. It's very random, sometimes at a stop the car will repeatedly drop to ~200rpm and then rev up to 1500, sometimes it will die completely while doing this. Sometimes it will sputter while driving at 1300rpm. Sometimes I will literally have to floor the pedal to get it to move from a stop, sometimes it is completely fine.
After resetting my computer and driving about 20 miles, my check engine light comes on. I got the codes read at autozone today and this is what came from that:
Code: P1151 -- Please note that the TPS I am using DID come with the plenum I purchased, it is not my old TPS.
Definition:
Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) property malfunction
Probable causes
1.-Open or short circuit condition
2.-Poor electrical connection
3.-Failed APS
Code: P0136
Definition:H02S 12 circuit condition (Heated oxygen sensor bank 1 sensor 2) Can anyone tell me what O2 sensor in particular this is? I know that it is post-cat, but not what side it is on.
Explanation:
The powertrain control module uses the oxygen sensor to calculate the air/fuel ratio in the exhaust.
Probable Causes
1.-Oxygen sensor defective
2.-Fuel system running very rich or lean-check other codes first
3.-Engine misfire condition-repair
4.-Fuel pressure very high or low-fuel pump or pressure regulator
Code: P1131
Definition:
H02S 11 - Indicates Lean- Correcting for over rich condition
Probable Causes
1.-Leaking injector, regulator or excessive fuel pressure
2.-Engine vacuum leak or open EGR valve at idle
3.-Engine mechanical condition
4.-Failed H02S or MAF sensor
Where should I start looking? Could all of these problems be caused by the TPS problem? As I stated, I do have MIL eliminators hooked up, which should work, so I don't know why the O2 sensors would be throwing codes.
