Rickster Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Any idea what would set this DTC. Had oil changed yesterday. Could it be posible that it might be burning off some excess oil? I see on invoice - 8 liters of 5w-30w. About 1/2 ltr more than needed. 2001 STS Mettalic Otter Grey, Black Leather, 213,000 kilometers - miles - ? Still running strong!

JimD Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Did the oil change dudes have the engine air filter box open? Jim Drive your car. Use your cell phone. CHOOSE ONE ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimD Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Check those codes; the numbers you gave are for lean - not rich. If you are convinced of the connection between the oil change and the codes, there are some items to check under the hood when both banks are reported lean; vacuum leaks, vacuum hose knocked loose from a connection, PCV valve, oil filler cap, dipstick.

Rickster Posted February 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Did the oil change dudes have the engine air filter box open? Yup. It was loose. Tightened her up and codes gone. A few WOT's around the block and still gone. Gotta love this site. Thanks Jim. I owe you a beer. Rick 2001 STS Mettalic Otter Grey, Black Leather, 213,000 kilometers - miles - ? Still running strong!
