Hey Guys, Before I start troubleshooting the crap out of this, what are the possibilities of getting bad O2's out of the box? All I did was replace the 02 sensors, and now im getting 41/91 and when the car gets warm it runs like crap/bucks/surges unless I go WOT. ./sigh Mike

Sounds good, ill give it a few hundred more miles...more of an annoyance then anyhting...if you dump it it grabs like a mofo. Lol Mike

Hey Guys, I just fixed up my combo and have been putting miles on it breaking it in. I put a spec stage 2 and a stock resurfaced flywheel in. After about 300 miles or so, the clutch chatters/shudders when leaving a dead stop in first. Is this normal for a Spec? This is my first...

Drive it around for an hour and see if the codes come back. Mike

Hey Jrichker, Add that one to the list lol. Swapped in the 3wire old 02's I had and problem went away! Mike

SON OF A BITCH - Just did some research. 1990 2.3 4cyl cars use 4 Wire 02's.... V8's use 3 Wire 02's.... >.< ill replace it and let you know Thanks for the help man your a lifesaver!

Also I dont know if you saw my other thread about the problem where it stands now Car runs like ok, bieng rich, on start up. After a minute or so, its runs like garbage. after 10 minutes check engine light comes on, then goes off and the car runs fine, just rich afterwards. If you idle for...

Hey Jrichter, Ya I definitely just verified. My OLD 02 sensors were 3 wire, these new ones are 4 Wire. If i remember correctly 96+ 02's are 4 wire. Ill have to check that out, maybe I have the wrong 02's Hmmm Mike

UPDATE - 2/24/2009 Hey Guys, I pulled the Hego sensor connector off and was able to measure some voltages KOEO: Passenger side: Red w/ Black stripe: .037V Black w/green: 0V Gray w/Yellow: 12.16V Driver Side (couldnt tell color but identical to above) Jrich that look normal...

If your looking for a High end power turbo, look into the T6 series. Mike

Hey Joel, Yes I got that thanks. I tested across the Grey/yello striped wire with the 20G fuse link and I got 12V on both sides with the Key on. I dont think that is my problems, troubleshooting the 02 votlages next, then will measure the Heater voltages at the O2's. Mike

ttt

TTT- Anyone know where the fuse link is for the heaters?

Gotcha, but where is it lol Mike

Hey Guys, I found that my 02 harness was touching a header pipe and had burned 3 of the wires. I pulled the wires away today and tapes them up, however my problem still persists. I was in the middle of trying to test the 02's at the computer side when my Voltmeter took a **** on me (ill...

If those are the 02 harness would that spot kill the fusable link?

Where does this go and what does it do? Its right underneath the CAI/MAF area and is NOT the MAF wire. If you have seen my other threads for code 91/41, I was troubleshooting the harness and found this burned against the header pipe....I since moved it and separated the wires (they almost look...

UPDATE: So I took off work early today and got a couple more things. I replaced the Fuel Filter (the one on there looked stock, 160k miles), and the PCV valve. Now I took it for a spin to warm it up and I swear the car is behaving better. The check engine light took 20 mile to come on...

Yup, cleaned and checked that last night. Matter of fact i cleaned EVERY electrical connector and ground I could find. Im gonna go through the O2 checklist tonight but the problems are still there in closed loop when the computer is not using the 02's ... :(

What do you mean by smoke it out? Also, this problem was there before I dropped the new engine in and persists after.. Thanks, Mike
