Car running after 7 months.. just 1 code now.. After having my car tore aparts since the beginning of january, it's finally up and running. 
I just have one thrown code, P1133.. something about insufficient o2 sensor. Would this mean my o2's are bad? They were out of the car the whole time the car was apart.

Re: Car running after 7 months.. just 1 code now.. Just having them out of the car shouldn't make them go bad. What about the o2's in the box on the shelf?
Since your car's been torn apart, obviously something has changed. What did you change/add to your car? "A ton of crap" in the sig isn't too discriptive

Re: Car running after 7 months.. just 1 code now.. 
I upgraded from MAC headers to the grott design, along with absolute speed 5.3 heads. I am going to try and put in another set to see if the ones I have are bad. The o2's I have now were sitting on a work bench pretty much all year so anything could have gotten on them.

Re: Car running after 7 months.. just 1 code now.. Be prepared to battle codes at first. I would leave the old 02's until you've run it a while and gotten things straightened out - no sense putting in a new sensor and chance having it get fouled.
