Curious and wondered if anyone has tried resisters. Like on my 89 chevy K1500 i put one on O2 sensor. Headers were messing it up. No more code runs fine.

I seen a few sites where they talk about do it yourself vs performance chips. Say u put a resister in front of the temp sensor. So Ecm thinks it is always at perfect running condition. I put one at 5% resistance in front of my O2 and no more code are running rich.

I have one O2 i put it in collectors. Thats all it had when we rebuilt motor. I have a purple wire no where to go passenger side though. Also i wired alternator thourgh stock plug. It only had a brown wire and one power wire on back. So i have jumper wire power to power in plug. Gauge works but brown wire is broken in dash passenger side not sure where to go with it. I ran wire off tach wire on coil. Then power to plug out buzz box orange hot wire. Its a ZLb4 4.3. Ill take any help i can get. Thanks.

Some i started unplugging sensors and vaccum lines one day. No change till i pull line off front going to egr solenoid. Plugging back in the map made motor stumble then started working. Ive got performance cam headers intake exhaust dizzy etc. Still pulls like stock and u cant hear cam u could at first. If u drive some where and dont stay long it will fluid out plugs and oil. Stock and now its cold natured like a carb motor.

Seen guy put it in diagnostic mode and injectors spayed when oil pumped ingaged. I dont have indicator so on compression stroke im at 1:00-4:00. Aftetmarket damper has two marks.

I dont have Iat? I jumped A to H code 12 the iac light came on. I jumped A to C and B to C. Couldnt remember which. The iac is in the hole now and no light. Battey light came on didnt know it worked. Tried to start battery was to weak. It was charging low when i parked it. Thats why i wired in stock plug made 3 wire.
