Default SES Light

Pulled out of the driveway last night and started getting a solid check engine light in my 2000 Trans Am M6. Today I noticed that its being really stubborn to not go into higher RPMs. It's like the car is trying to limit the amount of throttle or the amount of RPMs it can climb to. Tonight when I drove it around the block it would accelerate but I had to mash the pedal to the floor and the ses light started flashing. I haven't gotten it scanned yet, but figured I would ask you guys...I'll get it scanned in the next couple of days.

I'm thinking MAF or o2 sensor issues...

FYI...it's got long tubes and ORY.

Will do...gotta get this shiz fixed before the Fbody gathering if it is the o2 sensors, do you guys recommend running the corvette o2's instead of extending the stock ones?

Got some codes...P0300, P0152, P0135, P0155, P0410.

Update... I deleted all the codes and it drove 100% normal for a few minutes then started doing it again. I got a new C5 corvette o2 sensor I'm going to drop in the passenger side and I'm going to clean the maf...hopefully that will do it...

Any other suggestions would be great.

Thanks

Update x2....

Maf is cleaned...went ahead and cleaned the throttle body too while I was in there. Passenger side o2 sensor had water in the connector because the wire was hanging way too low...I'm gonna wait about an hour and let the connection air dry and then install the new passenger side o2 based on what I've found so far...I'll update when that's done.




Last update...

After doing what I said above, the car runs fine... pretty sure the passenger side o2 was the main issue.
