What's the question?

Just was wonder where the problem at the car seems to run just fine. I just had the whole intake manfold taken off and cleaned all new gaskets every where. Do know where the problem is?

How many miles? Have you replaced the O2 sensors?

 

[shospeed143]

I would clear codes and then run the car for a few days and then pull codes again. If you cleaned your intake your O2 sensor just got some cleaner on it and put a code out.

It seems like anyone who has taken their intakes off to clean them always ends up with code problems afterwards. What gives?

nasty chemicals on the O2 sensors?

The car has 140,000 and the O2's where replace last year. I will reset the computer and go from there. The guy who worked on my car stated that oil was in the plug well and when he took the spark plugs out all the oil drained in the piston. And when he started the car up it smoked for a few mins. Could that cause one on my O2s to mess up. Also I check spark plug wires. There on was a wire that wasn't one all the way. Thanks for you help Guy

If a wire wasn't on, that would cause a rich condition... The oil shouldn't have messed with the O2, and if it did, the oil would burn off quickly.

Let us know what happens after you reset the codes and drive it for awhile. Good Luck!
