Help! stuck injector? bad o2? Help i have no idea what to do...
just now about 10 minutes ago i was driveing along... then i lose all this power and my engine starts misfiring BAD ... i pull off... shut the car off and pull up the autotap.. re-start... it fires up perfectly... runs fine for about 15 seconds... and then starts shaking... misfireing etc.
my bank 2 o2 is at 1107mm and doesnt move
my bank 2 short trim is at -40%
i have no idea if an injector is stuck open ( 30# svo's)
or my o2 is shot...

Re: Help! stuck injector? bad o2? Switch injector banks around, and see if the issue happens on the opposite side of the engine. If it does, it's an injector. If not, it's the O2. O2 will generally throw a code as well.
Or, hell, you can do the opposite. Swap the O2's between sides and see if the problem follows the O2s. Whichever is easier for you.

Were your O2s coated? What kind of fuel do you use?
