I reset it and it came back on; #1 oxygen content has anyone ever had that code before also if I hold it steady around 2000-2400 it surges it will rev and then die gaining and dropping 500 rpms.

it means you arent tuned properly....probably running too rich.

OR, you have a faulty O2 sensor

hondaswap.com has a list of the ecu error codes

make sure you o2 sensor cables are connected or if they came loose.

440 injectors stock 2000 si ecu, didnt do any thing with the o2 cables will check, also ping, death rattle (detionotion?) at full throttle in higer gears at lower rpms, using 94 octane gas,after I reset the ecu its fine until I start to rape it then the light comes on will come on in the lower rpms should I lean it out more -41 starting point for afc

So I don't suppose you've got a wideband? What is your timing set at? Are you retarding it at all?

Re:check engine light

I hope you don't mind if I jump in on this thread...

I have an OBD0 hatch and don't get a CEL right away, but I eventually get one (Code 1) after driving on the highway for 10 or 15 minutes. I'm working on getting a new O2 sensor, but I starting wondering, "what if that's not the problem?" The car has absolutely no mods with 190,000 miles. But basically, I'm either running too rich, too lean or my sensor is going bad. Is that about right?

Most likely the sensor if you have no mods...

thats exacly what happens 10-15 miles after I reset the ecu cel comes back on with the code. So what do you thimk about when I hald the gas steady and it gaining and dropping rpms.everything was fine until I swaped injectors

Re:check engine light
 
so if the light doesn't come right back on when I reset the ecu could it be that the sensor is getting cloged up
