Oaky, bare with me here I am at my office computer and cant download the spell check. I spell like a crossed-eyed first grader. Sorry... Now to the problem..


Well my 99 z boggs in the begining of all my gears and then cuts right back in.. Well i got a fault on my OBD2 reader saying Low volts to my o2 sensors... I changed them all and reset the codes..

The engine still boggs.. Dont know why.. Also i still get the errors for low volts to o2 sensors (one on bank 1 and one on bank 2) . I just went on LMperformance and ordered some new spark plugs.

A gentelman that i work with said that i may be the Shi^*y gas we get here on our base. So, he recomonded some octane booster. Well after reading a few threads i got a slight hint that octane booster is really bad on the o2 sensors.. I know i seem like a NOOB but i am comming along.

Crap! One more thing..
The color of my Z is Hugger Orange... Not the most popular color over here amongst the europeans. So, can i go directly to GM and get the color? Or are there better places? Thanks in advance guys!

 

Replace the 02 sensors???

 

hmm? I changed all of them out with new ones. I dont think i get what you are saying.

 

You need to check the o2 wiring from the connector and back for burns, damage, or corrosion. The pre-cat o2's are the only ones that will affect your performance.

 

Oh, ok; i missed that.

 

Stop throwing parts at the car due to what a scanner tells you. The DTC descriptions on aftermarket scanners are horrible. Tell us what the actual DTCs were (it should read Pxxxx, where xxxx is the DTC number that we need). You may have lean codes, and the junk scanner is falsely assigning it an to O2 sensor problem description.

 

Very well could be ****ty gas. These cars are supposed to use premium. Octane booster won't hurt cats.

 

Thanks! I will have to get back with that tomorrow as my scanner is at the house... Or i could just post them when i get home.. Anyway i shall throw them up on here. Thanks again!

 

one code was P0157

 

That's bank 2 sensor 2 o2 sensor circuit low voltage. This will not have any affect on performance.

 

I wonder if you're MAF is on the way out. Any chance a buddy can loan you a MAF from an LS1 f-body to swap in and try?

 

Glad to see my quote is still around!

 

I think mine is the only Camaro in the whole area. I guess i am kinds screwed on this one. Hmmm
