Default Help with 02 sensors

ok need help with this one big time..... basically why do my oxygen sensors look like this?


this is set number 2 and its doing the same thing.... had it tuned at race proven motorsports in Delaware, they told me my right bank had a bad sensor, so I just replaced both of them, but still acts the same.... its a mutt of a motor, 00 block, 98 top end, heads cam, injectors, yatta yatta.... runs good at WOT but cruising it wants to bog out... has new MAF sensor, running the Vette/LS6 one, fuel pressure is good, spark plugs look good.... any suggestions?

I'd start w/ some data logs....
A known bad sensor, and it was "tuned" anyway?? Or, were the sensors changed when the tune was done??

Well its basically a stock tune, and at wot its fine only at a cruise speed does it bog and spit, they said replace the pasenger side O2 sensor and it should fix, I just wanted to verify computer wasn't causing problems.... Figured it might have been a prior tune or something causing it.... Holds idle great

Your front O2s are fine, no reading for the drivers rear. Under normal operation they switch constantly from about .01-.95v. A bad O2 will be stuck at one value or never go to a certain range

O2S11(V) : .xxx
O2 Sensor Bank 1 Sensor 1 (front) measured in voltage : value .xxx volts

Something is amiss though, the PCM is cutting 27-28% of fuel for your drivers bank

If you have 02 extensions make sure that are wired correctly... I have ran into that a few times.
