Default Flushed the fuel injectors

Well the dealership did, and they replaced the fuel filter (dont worry I paid 10$ for the filter, not the 80 f***ing dollars they wanted ) and the car ran AWESOME for two days before it threw another code, now the same damn thing is happening, between 2200 and 3000rpms there is a major lag, like its lean, which is what my A/F ratio showed on the dyno. The dude at the dealership said he has never seen a car being flushed and then having to be flushed again, I'm not a gearhead but I think its clogged again given the same results before and after. Any ideas?

2000 SS Pewter <--I'm sure the color matters

elec cutout, lid. thats it.

39000 miles TODAY, I almost cried, shes almost over the hill.

Codes thrown: 02 sensors, bank 1 and bank 2 on the exhaust. The stealership said it was the 02s that were telling the us the injectors were messed up.

I took it to the dealership because I have an extended warranty, I ended up biting the *** and paying for the initial maint my self

Well the 02 sensors are replaced and the same damn thing is happening. So far its flushed fuel injectors, fuel filter and now the new 02s and the mechanic is still stumped.

Did you check the fuel pressure? (It's really easy to do yourself.) Should be steady about 59 psi.

The thrown code is for the 02 sensors in each bank in the exhaust. Those were replaced and nothing happened.

Then they replaced the fuel pump, nothing happened.

GET THIS The dealership foreman just called asking about everything I've done to my car, and asked me what I think is, he wants me to get a friend with a ls1 so that he can use his MAF sensor to see if thats the problem because he keeps popping new parts on the SS..


HAHAHA, just fix it you fuckwad. I coould use a new MAF

check all you fuses under the hood and the ones inside. a budy of mine had the same problem and it happened to be one of the fuses under the hood that runs the mass air and o2's was burned. we changed it and the codes went away, hope that helps.
