Ok, I've already utilized the search feature on the list, and my question has been simplified due to it :D

I ran the KOEO test and got my usual bad o2 sensor codes 172 and 176, and then it threw the PIP code 211. Majority says this hints at a bad CPS... however, the SHO runs pretty much fine.

So the question is: do I ignore the code, or attribute the occasional stall to a soon-to-be-failing CPS? 60k has not been properly done (no valve lash was performed at 75k) but everything else was taken care of.

Any other suggestions, aside from checking the DIS?

sounds pretty safe to say if you have occasional stalling and youre getting the code its your cps, but maybe someone else will have a different opinion. i got the code from having bad grounds on the bolts in my crossover tube, you should check them out.

If you had multiple electronic ignition system fault codes in addition to the 211 it might indicate another problem which could result in a false 211 code, but the 211 alone is indeed indicative of a failing CPS. (I know it can be unsettling, which is why I think so many people want to hope that by some miracle it's anything but the CPS... Unfortunately, this code rarely lies...)

Time to prepare for the front-end 60K...
