How is the new O2 sensor holding up?....no more 'check engine' light?

 

Area52, so far, so good !!! But I am not sure as the last few days have been cool and wet. The week in between from when the problem started to when it was fixed, the truck didn't act up a couple of those days as well. They too were cool and wet days BUT I am almost positive that the Oxygen Sensor was the problem. It should have acted up on the way back to Windsor with that long of a drive. But nothing and that is just the way I like it !!! And besides when the truck was hooked up to the computer, it stuck high till the truck was shut off and then stuck low the next time the truck was started.

I'm curious as to why the problem went away when you turned off OD.

Take care

PKRWUD: It is not the fact that it stopped but it didn't affect my speed as much as being in overdrive. When I stayed in OD, it would take longer for the condition to clear. I figure this was because the rpm's were slower compared to out of OD. Out of overdrive, the truck ran ****ty for about a minute or so. Even taking off from a stand still, the truck wouldn't accelerate correctly, so I would manual shift the truck through the gears so I could keep the rpm's high !!
