Have someone plug up a scanner to your car, and see what the O2's are reading. If they seem to be working fine than maybe it might it could be an opti issue?

yea over the past 2 years i have went through bout 3 sets of o2 sensors. But since i got the actually ac delco, they are still going strong. BOSCH ARE GARBAGE, and so is NTK

The paint, or coating, inside of the headers burns off and plugs your O2's. I just changed mine today and they are disgusting.
OP: Just go to Autozone and have them scan your car. They do it for free and it'll tell you exactly what O2 sensor is bad, or whatever it is causing your SES light.
