What is PO133, I think slow response bank 1 O2 sensor. If memory serves me correct.

Anyone confirm it?

have you lengthened or shortened the first o2 sensor wire?

If you have toget another sensor, do not get bosch, it will only give you worse problems.

well what part of the wire id you lengthen? Cause if you lenghtened the plug side, that would be your problem.

So when installing a header you need to lengthen the wire before the plug? Not after the plug? Just curious as to why it matters
