So did they replace it?

 

Just Baught it. Gonna do it Sunday. I'm on my way to IN

 

How much. I'm curious about mine.

 

$50 at Autozone. Its a Bosch one. Also I forgot to mention that I had a vacuum hose leak in a hose to the throttle. So she doesn't die anymore.

 

Thx. Which hose?

 

This one. 3 pics from throttle to computer box(I think?) The hose was worn out and cracked. Causing her to run too rich and dying out. And the sensor is stuck at 4.95 ish amps and it should jump between 1 and 3 amps. The guy told me there was a bulletin to replace that Gen o2 sensor.

 

Can't see the pics but that's your map sensor.

 

Wonder if you didn't bump the MAP sensor line changing the valve cover, then running rich fouled the O2 sensor. Anyway that's a S-load of blow-by. You might want to change your oil & filter......

Fantastic! Now if it ever snows again you can still get around. Driest Dec. here since records...had to down-size the nozzle on my hydro-electric, creek's drying up. You might want to check the vac. lines on that Honda

 

Ya I might have. But tthe guy hooked up his computer and the map and throttle sensors worked fine. Just that hose was worn and the o2 sensor was never replaced. But ever since that hose was replaced, she is running solid, so Chicago winter can bring it on. Last yr almost killed me bit I'm ready this yr. Hell last yr a wrangler had to help me pull out my moms outlander that I had to use to get to work (and I drove on the highway in the middle of the storm, the highway was empty. I'll post a video later)

 

So today I might be changing that o2 sensor and going for a little test drive. She is running great. No problems, even with a bad o2 sensor, but I'm gonna change it anyways to help save on gas. And I might also remove my oil pan and clean out all the crap that is surely built up in it. Can I power wash there?

 

U could power wash just the pan itself if its off the motor but I wouldnt advise letting any water get into the block lol

 

Well ya that's what I meant lol. But what would be the best way to clean out the motor. A family friend who is a mechanic told me to use diesel.?

 

Marvel Mystery Oil, one quart, with 5 qts of Rotella and a new Wix or Napa Gold filter. Do it again in 1,000 miles. Same thing: MMO and Rotella with good filter.

 

Thank you once again.

 

I think the "HD" you see on the oil bottle means "high detergent". I remember an old chevy I had run on Pennzoil before high detergent was the norm. The valve cover was completely casted with gunk. Just clearance to let the rockers move.
Theory was you didn't want to switch to HD because when all that gunk came loose it would foul things up. (that is, switch without cleaning it up first).

If I was worried about some sort of contamination, I'd change the oil & filter, then just plan the next change sooner. If modern High Detergent oil can't get it to come loose and lodge in my filter, it can stay where it is as far as I'm concerned. Just my Two cents......
