ah it's not a big deal just kind of a pita to get to mostly went and got the part already $60
that's what happens when you drive around at 100mph for miles and miles
if this thing was 2wd it would be a piece of cake
Yeah, the front diff makes that O2 sensor a PIA.
going under it shortly had to catch up on work from the last 4 days, almost caught up
Well that went a hell of a lot easier than what I recall it taking last time, took a whole 5 minutes lol
Crows foot and angled ratchet head

fuel content was showing 55% even though I had burned all the e85 out a couple days ago, there was a pending code for the 02 sensor again and lean code for bank 2 I assume the bad bank 1 02 sensor was causing it?
cold start was a bit rough, cleared it out and reset the content, seemed to make a instantaneous difference, I guess I'll see how it starts again tomorrow while it's nice and cold again

Did you go from the top or bottom?
I drove it up on ramps and got it from the bottom, I think the trick is the angled ratchet head
cold start this morning was completely different, started up like it was warmed up already, makes me wonder how off that 02 sensor has been.
I'm terrible with the math, but if you can find out how much richer e55 needs to be compared to e10 gas. it was probably that much to rich before you reset everything?
I see something like e85 needs to be 30-40% more fuel for the same volume of gas, so e55 guess 25% rich?
I don't know, fuzzy maths haha.

I don't know much about the e85 calculation but you're probably right about having a physical sensor that would likely help correct any problems.

I got an intermittent P219A after the Thanksgiving blizzard drive. Last time it was present I installed two new upstream O2 sensors, and that had resolved the issue for the past couple months. It's super annoying to get it back.
i'm on the fence about going ahead and replacing the other side as well, the post cat ones I already replaced a few months ago before i discovered the clogged cat issue.
might wait till march when we have another trip twice as far

How important are the downstream sensors? My upstream were obviously causing the issues, and made an overall difference to the engine after changing them out. I've never changed the downstream sensors out, and should probably just bite the bullet.
I believe the post cat ones just monitor the cat efficiency function, the upstream are more important
never had any driveability issue's with bad cat's or a cat code, but this bank1 02 did cause a little bit of issue, right before it would pop a code I could feel a little shifting problem once and another time I could feel some deceleration surging. I am assuming that's because it was sending faulty data to the maf which was in turn trying to correct it. when I reset the code it would go back to driving normal

I touched it. I haven't touched it in 4 days. Still on the lift. Coming home tomorrow. Almost there. I been getting no sleep since I took it in. Up half the night every night. The anxiety is kicking my ass.
It'll be good, and worth the wait! Quality takes time....
I know. I worked so hard for this. I just want her back home.
If the O2 sensor has over 50k miles on it I would replace it.i'm on the fence about going ahead and replacing the other side as well, the post cat ones I already replaced a few months ago before i discovered the clogged cat issue.

I wouldn't want each bank to be that out of sync with the other.
I know it is a PIA to do both but that is how I do the maintenance on my vehicles.
Seems to have worked well so far on all my vehicles, I have never been stranded and the one has 250k trouble free miles on it.
