i have had issues with these codes recently.

i just finished installing "HELP" anti-foulers for the O2 sensors. this has removed my CEL. I am hoping to get it to pass inspection now so i can work on the cats when it's warm and when i have the money...


do a search on the anti-foulers. there is a write up out there with pictures and instructions.

they seem to have worked, although i am still waiting for that damn light to come back on.

My truck is a 2004 s/c cc LB.


also, if you do install them, NOTE: the passenger side O2 sensor ends up being two long with both anti-foulers and the shift linkage hits it and prevents shifting past D. i had to shave off a little on each fouler to make room BUT as i have said my p0420 and p0430 seem to have been taken care of.

small update

so i have yet to go for the inspection sticker BUT i have driven atleast 125 miles since i intalled anti-foulers and disconnected battery.

no light yet. AND my new theory is that when i do go to get the sticker, i should pass due to the fact that the primary cats are the ones that are bad and causing the CEL but the secondarys are still ok and should clean the emmisions enough to pass.

will find out next week when i take it in to have it inspected.
