150 miles to my last tank?!

[MisterCMK]

Well, I would say put the old ones back in.

[seanjohn]

Old ones are coated with carbon from running a piss-poor tune. I had heard that bosch's don't agree with honda's....but what I really need to know is if I can simply have these tested...where, and how much.

[bluejays]

bosch doesn't agree with any car imo

[seanjohn]

Anyone have any experience w/ denso's?

[JohnW]

go with some OEM ones. try resetting your ecu if you can. i'm not too familiar with hondas but it took my gsx a little while to get used to the idea of my new o2 sensor. just some thoughts.

[seanjohn]

OEM is an idea, but they don't come w/ a warranty....ever. Also, these bosch's have a warranty on them, so I should be able to replace them with something else at autozone...i.e. denso's

[Sweet-WRX-Lovin]

You're not out of boost fluid again right?

[XJHEAD]

I wish I could get 150 miles to a tank

[slowvo]

there is zero warranty on OEM o2 sensors?

damn...honda is gay

Yeah, check out your vtak cleaner too. I heard honda is going to stop selling the vtak cleaner so stock up now.. after this year you will just have to buy a new vtak. (or go grey market for 'tak cleaner... shhh).

Just funnin.. I had a civic ex when I was 17 and didn't know shit about cars and let me tell you, v-tec was the shit.

[treimche]

A way you can check to see if they are putting out the proper voltage, is to use a multi meter, and read the signal wire at the ECU to see if it is fluctuating between 0-1 volt DC. It will bounce all around at idle and normal cruise, but under full throttle it will sit at a value closer to 1v.

I know its a shot in the dark, but did you touch your timing?

[seanjohn]

Nope, haven't touched the timing since the new dizzy...only thing to change is the 02 sensors. However, I double checked under my hood tonight because I have to order some
-an fittings for my fuel line...and I noticed it reaked of gas...and I notice a little pool of fuel accumulating on my intake manifold. Looked like it might have come out of injector #1....dunno if it's not getting a good seal or what?!?! Stoopid cars.

[MisterCMK]

Who cares if the old o2 sensors have carbon? If they work better than the Bosch's, why don't you want to put them back in?

[KA-T_240]

if there is gas around it i would replace it just to be sure try that and see what happens then try the old o2 sensors in there again

[PSiedTSi]

if youve R&R'd the injectors a lot maybe its a good idea to replace the O-rings...its a cheap insurance policy if nothing else...

Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and get a new injector o-ring set. The old 02 sensors have moved on to a better place. I'm going to replace them and the o-rings and see what happens.

[seanjohn]

FYI update: located the problem...it was a torn injector o-ring on injector #1. Cause: AEM fuel rail; as it turn out, the opening of the aim rail are not as large as stock, making the o-rings easily torn.

Glad you found it. Good call Tony.
