o2's acting strange
o2's acting strange Car has bolt-ons and a cam.
For some reason at idle both o2's randomly nosedive to around 30mv and
stay there until you stab the throttle. When this happens the car idles like its
missing. After you blip the throttle the idle settles back down and will idle
fine, then randomly the same thing happens again.
Bank 1 o2 has been replaced and the same thing still happens. Bank 2 will be
replaced but they had to order one.
I've posted a scan of this happening with the new bank 1 sensor. It happens
around the 3 minute mark.
Anyone know what would cause this?
I'm open to all suggestions and if there's anything else you would like to see
in a scan let me know, and I'll do it.
Thanks

Didn't look at your scan, but Main cause for o2's to go limp at idle is your afr is off from stoich. I got the same issue, but only temporary as I'm trying to get inspected, then back to olsd.
Try to figure out how to get your o2's to control your afr at idle and should keep in line I would think, but I've not worked in CL in very long time so don't go by what I say.

o2s don't like to operate beyond stoich, they just go limp.
