P0130 Code

[alexm2816]

For some reason after installing my AFR gauge I'm getting a P0130 code for the O2 sensor. Not sure why that would appear as I don't think I've ever touched it.

Regardless, AFR readings are right where I want them if only a little rich. I have a PCV ready to go in at the end of the season (I'm waiting for new rods...I think).

My question, which of these options do you recommend?

1. Run it with the alarm as the code doesn't affect the operation much as far as I understand.

2. Spend the coin to get a new sensor/time to hunt down whatever is going on.

3. Install the resistor pack from my PCV on the stock O2 pigtail (presumably eliminating the code) and keep an eye on AFR. (I'd take this out if I had the sled into the shop)

Thanks all.

Put the resistor pack in or get the new flash. Both eliminate stock O2 sensor.

As always, thanks Steve. Good to know my understanding of what the narrow band O2's do is up to date but also interesting they're abandoning them in the new flash.

Started my sled up a couple weeks ago and got the same code. I just got a new sensor from the dealer and put it in
