Q: Lean rich loop after catalytic delete
Hi,
I have GS430, year 2006.
Removed both front catalytic converters, because i was getting code P0420. Now i sometimes get P0136 code. It means Bank 1 Sensor 2 error.
After catalytic converters were removed, i used spacers on O2 sensors, that go after converters.
Now my car goes into some loop when trying to calibrate fuel/air ratio. On diagnostics program it shows that fuel must be 3% richer, then 5%, 7%, 12%, 15% and drops to 0. Then it repeats.
Should i replace O2 sensor on Bank 1 sensor 2? Maybe spacers should be changed to other brand? Any thoughts? Thanks.

Before buying and spending money on a new sensor that youre unsure about. Why not place the bank 1 into bank 2 swap them around and if you get an error after youve cleared the codes on bank 2 then replace the sensor.
