aftermarket sensors are fine,i have used alot of the Bosch O2 sensors and not had any trouble with them.
1998 Mustang GT Error Advice?
Okay,
My 98 GT's Check Engine Light came on. Kicked out codes of P1151 and P1150 (Pending) which are Lack of HO2S21 Switches - Sensor Lean, and Lack of HO2S21 Switches - Fuel Trim at Limit or Low Voltage and Circuit Failure (Ford/Generic). So it all seems to point to a bad upstream O2 sensor on bank 2. I already know to do them both since when 1 goes the other is soon to follow. The car has 98787 miles and has not had O2 sensors replaced to my knowledge. Symptoms on the car were no-existent at first, then degrading to a slight miss and fluttering between 500 and 900 rpm at idle. So before I do anything I want some feedback from anyone who has had this problem or might have a suggestion. Also, Ford wants $135 per sensor, Kragen wants $66. Any suggestions?
(I know that OEM is the way to go but I'm on a budget. I will, however break the bank for OEM parts if that is the smart thing with something like an O2 sensor.
Thanks for the help,
