yeah that determines your A/F reading. That is what your problem is.

if you had 4 hooked up before, why would you only hook one back up?

Yea hook the fronts back up. Also if your done modding your car, or atleast for a while, get a tune. A tune was the best mod I did, and you can have the shop turn the rear O2's off and you wont need O2 simulators.
