i have a 93 honda civic with a ls motor. the thing is that when i drive the car hard it throws a code 1. and then when i turn the car off it goes alway. the check engine light goes on and off all the time. what do you think the problem might be. i am about to get the car state refree friday please help.

 

OXYGEN sensor. just check it out make sure there are no problems with it like wiring or the sensor just might be shity ----

 

thats what i thought too. so i replaced the oxygen sensor. i was wondering if there was a leak right after the o2 would it cause the sensor to go on and off like i am experiencing.

 

Incorrectly wired, or some wierd issue.

Is the ECU chipped?

Does the car stumble at a highway cruise?

Anything else you can think of?

 

let me see... i think i wired up correctly [can you post a diragram so i can check. it was my first time doing this and the instrustion were in french.

 

i dont know i have the same ------ issue.

chipped ecu with the o2 disabled, and it will randomly throw a cel 1 code. ---- if i know how to fix it. i just turn the car off and on again, when it comes on

 

I have a diagram in my head, and my mspaint skills suck. If you start describing the system as you have it configured I can be of help.

 

PS - DIY rule of thumb? If YOU wired the sensor according to vowel shifting surrender monkey specifications and then you get a code for said sensor, it's probably not the sensor that's bad.

 

alright the oe color on the o2 are 2 black 1 green 1 white. the universal is 2 black 1 white 1 blue.
i wired it black to black white to white and blue to green.


the code 1 when alway for a while today and then came back on again with a code 43 after i messed with the fpr.
would a obd0 computer have anything to do with this, cause i have a 93 civic with an ls.
