quick answer and insight appreciated. I made a post a week or so ago about CODE P1416 (Secondary Air Injector (AIR) system Bank 2) and didnt get much or a respnse. I really dont want the hassel of going to the dealer if i dont have to AND I DOOO NOT WANT DAMAGE. I got this code after about 150 mile or so with the FLPs. So QUESTION: reset the PCM as a way of "denial", of bring it in to avoid ANY kind of damage.

Re: quick answer and insight appreciated. someone brought this up. No! i didn't. But i dont think that really matters. I know people who have dont the FLPs and havent gotten any codes whatsoever. And i asked them did you do this AIR restrictor mod, they said "nope!"

Re: quick answer and insight appreciated. From what I gather from the Helms manual (but you should check it out yourself):
When the AIR pump turns on, the pcm monitors the Bank 2, Sensor 1 O2.
Conditions for setting the DTC:
If the O2 voltage does not go below 222mV for 0.9 seconds when the AIR pump turns on.
OR
The short term fuel trim doesn't change more than a predetermined value when the AIR pump turns on.
The pcm illuminates the MIL indicator on the second ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
I don't see how it could be causing any damage to anything, judgement call on your part.
