Probably bad oxygen sensors. Is it on all the time?

Check and see what the codes are.

02 sensor, replace them, or take them out and clean them, but replace if you can, afterwards reset the computer, or else the computer wont find the fix.

Resting the computer?
???

If you mean resetting the computer, you should pull the codes first. The easiest way to reset the ECM is to disconnect the negative battery cable, and while it's disconnected, turn on the headlight switch for 15 seconds. This will make sure that any/all capacitors are discharged. Then reconnect the battery cable.
Take care, -Chris |
