another CEL!

[White 96GT]

Well I'm sixteen and only have about 200 bucks to my name and all the sudden the CEL comes on while driving to autozone. It surged like 5 times and then the CEL came on Other than those surges it runs fine just as normal.

what code did you pull?



oh and, i live my life one CEL at a time...but thats from no cats and no MILs. 8)

I pulled p151 or 1151 or something like that is says fuel/air mixture so I'm pretty sure its rear o2? So now the question is due I spend my money on a tuner, new o2s, or some mil elimenators? I wish I had the money for a tuner but I don't. Do you think cleaning the sensors would work?

If it's a P1151... your front drivers side 02 sensor is probably bad. $60 at autozone. Mine threw that code a few months back.

Yeah I went out to auto zone and had a friend of mine look it up on the computer. I could seem to find the one that I was looking for though. Do you remember what brand you used? Also did you use the universal model or the oem?

yea..im pulling some codes too...I pull 1152..Im pretty sure my 02 sensors in the front might be bad..but theyre expensive

Is their any chance at just cleaning them?

Thanks a bunch G-dawg but I figured out the problem! I found out that I just needed to clean my MAF sensor out! I just got done cleaning my filter like last week then boom check engine light. So I put one and one together and I just finished a 20mile test drive to make sure it stayed off.

Cool...! O0

It's nice when you don't have to spend money on something like that. I have other things I'd rather spend my money on... :drunk:
