Default P1133 code

Any suggestions why I might be throwing this code other than bad O2? Just replaced both a couple months ago.

if that is an o2 insufficient switching code, then you can delete the code or try the rear o2 sensors from a 2002 vette (bosch 13111 i think?). Long tube headers will cause the code because the oxygen sensors do not heat up as much as with stock manifolds. The bosch ones mentioned have higher wattage heaters to help this problem. If I were you, I would just get the codes deleted, beacause sometimes the bosch's do not solve the problem

I have no rear o2s since I don't have cats. those have been tuned out already. And I'm running bosch o2s up front.

I looked up that code and it appears that it pertains to the rear O2 Sensors...very odd, since you have simulators for the downstream sensors

Try getting the code reset. If it comes back again, then you may have to get the rear sensors disabled with a tune.

I had the code cleared yesterday, I'll see if it comes back.

I don't have simulators, they are tuned out already.

So, is the P1133 for the REAR O2s?

I thought that Bank 1 sensor 1 meant the driver side front O2???

The only things that I've done to the car are the mods in the sig.
Well, Tr6 spark plugs, been running those for about 8 months, new ones about 3-4 months ago and MSD wires. Stock injectors.
