What codes did you have? O2 codes mst of the time only indicate what you already know a lean or rich condition unless its a circuit code. You need to either logg the car and post it so some of us can look at it and make a better assement on whats going on. Also has this happed since your last tune and you had never addressed it? or something that just started happening over the last 6 months or so, i say that cause you said every 3 months. So im taking it as its done it at least twice. Smells like gas all the time? what plugs are you running

it honeslty is a stock tune besides the evap stuff that was deleted. it has happened twice now the plugs will fail out than i will get codes like bank 1 sensor 1 inop or 02 sensor below heat range and a miss fire code so i will pull the plugs and clean them and issue fixed for a short time and i am running ngk tr55's
