Whatever it is, it probably isn't the O2 sensor. Ive been trying to get rid of the Cel for over a year now and nothing seems to work. Even after getting it scanned like 5 times.

But hopefully yours is the O2... happy.gif

I did get it scanned at Autozone and the main code that pops up is for the O2 sensor...i think because my CAT was clogged....badly...that it fouled out the brand new O2 sensors...its not misfiring or anything like that all its doing is well a little crappy gas mileage and thats it...other than that it runs like new

to answer your question jsharptooth...not really, its got the normal rims and tires, exhaust, new CAT partial intake (the one i bought they sent the wrong size filter cone so i gotta get the smaller one but the tubing is hooked up) and ill hopefully be getting a header that actually fits! its also got the usual Pioneer speakers and Alpine cd player, hopefully ill have a sub and amp here soon as well

yup, sounds like air/fuel issue, so o2 is a good bet.

if you want an interesting story, ask Floyd what the real problem was, last time mine started throwing o2 sensor and misfire codes. cool.gif
