Service Engine Soon Light
The other day when coming home my '90 Z almost stalled when coming to a stop. This morning when I started it (and it took much longer than normal to crank) the SES light came on after 30 seconds or so of idling. It is throwing two codes; 45-Left oxygen sensor voltage was over 0.75 volts for 30 seconds when the throttle angle was above 4% during closed loop operation. 65-Right oxygen sensor voltage was above 0.75 volts for 30 seconds of closed loop operation when the throttle angle was above 20% or below 2.7%.
I don't think both sensors would go bad at the same time. Is there something that could cause both sensors to give these readings? Thanks, Don

No, But I checked the MAP sensor vac hose anyway. Still attached. Any chance stale fuel could be a problem? It's been 6 1/2 months since last fueling.

Think I found the problem. Leaking injectors. The oil on the dipstick smells of fuel. It just seems strange that it would happen on both the left and right sides at the same time. Any recommendations on replacement brands or just stay with stock?

While RC's are a good choice, if you are only going to replace the faulty ones, you would be better off sticking with matching injectors since they have different flow rates. I recently replaced one of my injectors rather than have the expense of replacing all 16. However, had I replaced them all, RC's would have been less expensive. Good luck |

Z Factor, I agree. If only replacing the faulty ones (the codes tell me I have a rich problem on both sides), stock would be the way to go. But I'm leaning towards replacing all while I'm under there. On a 15 yr old ZR1 could I expect some others to crap out soon?
