ya htats what im tryin to do.. ima have autozone read the code to see if its showing anything besides the header...

do u know if autozone can scan o2 sensors? or if you can tell if they are bad by pulling them out and looking at them?

that has to be the problem... i went thru 6 gallons in 1 normal around town driving day.... this sucks

wow... so randomly my o2 sensor fixed itself, i guess it took a while to clear up... and now everything is fine... i reset the check engine light, but it came back on... i was hoping it would read the header problem only, and thank goodness it did... no running rich, no misfires... FINALLY... fixed....

so rose, still got those antifoulers? 15 shipped im ready to go.....

only question is, when scanned, it said that there is a catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 1..... im assuming the 2nd 02 sensor is thinking the first 02 sensor is messed up because there is no cat at the header anymore... am i correct in this is the exact thing the antifoulers correct?

also, if i ever got like a tsudo mid pipe, that comes with a resonator but no cat... what happens then? does the light come on again?

oh nice u got it fixedman good ____.but now ur CEL is due to ur header wat its basically saying is that there's to much airflow going from the 1st sensor into the 2nd one (the one on the s-pipe) so an antifouler distances the sensor from the airflow so it basically "tricks" the airflow to make it seem like its normal. so an antifouler will make ur CEL go away, and no when u get a new midpipe it will not bring the CEL again. the midpipe doesn't have another 02 sensor and the midpipe is after the 2nd 02 sensor so there's nothignt aht should affect it, I had 2 different midpipes and my stock and that never bothered. but now when and if u ever get another aftermarket s-pipe u need to jus swap the antifouler onto that one. so whenever ur ready bro 15 shipped

paypal: rosedaleny806@yahoo.com ill be shipping it out tomorrow
