ok,
check this out,
when installing my header...it was time to mess with the 02 sensor,
I have 2 places to put it....
1. one on the 4th cylinder pipe on the header
2. the second one right before the catalyic converter (where all header pipes meet!)
when I used #2,mine would also throw a code over 60mph,
but when I used #1 w/the same sensor it never would,(throw a code)
which I do use an a/f gauge & I get better readings on #1,
when using #2,my a/f gauge would read nothing but rich,
which would make my 02 sensor...........black,
not saying that,thats your problem,but it was my problem at once & it may help you,
maybe the 1st question I should of asked was..
"where is your 02 sensor located?)
o yea & another thing,stay away from bosch 02 sensors for the imports,-you probably got it from autozone,which thats practicly the only brand they sale for any car.
