Arrow Service engine light is on after first time spraying car..

Finally put my Nitrous Outlet plate kit on my car and put the 100 jets in and everything works great and pulls good but the service engine light came on after the first time I made a pull today. Has stayed on all day and car runs perfect still.

What would cause this? Anything to worry about? I made a few more pulls on the bottle after the light came on and it felt great.

Running TR6 plugs gapped at .035
Stock ls1 bolt on 98 TA Auto car
Nitrous Outlet plate kit
Bottle pressure was really low and may have caused a real rich condition but still pulled good.

Not yet. Going to tomorrow. It's raining now so I'm going to ride to the parts store tomorrow and hook their scanner up and see what code it threw.

Was wondering if this was a common thing to have happen?

Don't jump to any conclusions just yet, get the car scanned then go from there. Could be absolutely nothing.

as far as the computer knows nothing is happening when you spray. So its probably some random code. If it runs fine let it eat. Just get the code checked out. It wasnt flashing while you were on the throttle was it?

Same thing happened to me, I was jetted for 45 psi of fuel pressure, and was making like 52 psi so the code I got was for a rich condition.

No it never flashed. I made a 1st-2nd gear pull and it came on then and stayed on constantly ever since.

I'm hoping that's all it was. I haven't wired up my bottle heater yet so the bottle was cold and only had around 680psi.

Error code P0132: Oxygen sensors bank 1 and bank 2 Rich

So it's what I was thinking. I was hoping it was just a rich code. I cleared it and expect it will stay off until I go to the track next week and use the bottle again.
