I have a 90 ZR1 with a slight misfire,and an OBD code 45 {left oxygen sensor}.Can it be just a bad o2 sensor or is there something else giving me the code? Any suggestions?

Possible leaking injector.

Thanks,I'll check it out. Is that possible with only 4000 original miles on the car?

100% if you haven't changed the injectors. Are they original injectors?

Yes,they are original. So is everything else on the car ,including the tires!

The original Multec fuel injectors are sensitive to the ethanol in today's gasoline.
There has been a near 100% failure rate on these.

Your choices are:
$$$$ RC Injectors
$$ Accell
$ FIC's rebuilt MSDs

FWIW, my FICs appear to be brand-new Bosch injectors.

I got a set from Jon last December and installed them in April. I was under the impression, at least the set I bought, to be reconditioned (as opposed to rebuilt) Bosch units.
Nonetheless, for $365 for all 16 was affordable and my 94 has never run this good!
