-P1167 Air/Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor (Sensor 1) Heater System Malfunction

Do you have a Raceheader or a testpipe?

My car has no mods at this time. I'm completely stock.

Well if you have neither id have to say that quite possibly one of your 02 sensors is bad.

Sorry I'm sort of a newbie with cars, but would that be something that I could fix on my own or would you suggest that I should take my car to an Acura dealership.

If you can turn a wrench then you can do it yourself. To someone who doesnt know cars too well I can describe it like this: It reminds me of a spark plug with wires coming out of it. It screws into a bung (hole) in your cat. The wires plug into an existing harness. Its fairly straightforward. I suggest buying a manual for the car.

, go to hondahookup.com and download a manual for free. Like my man said, it's really easy to do. Any idiot can be a mechanic, but not everyone can be a technician. I am an idiot so all I can do is turn a wrench. So there you have it, get a manual and start wrenching, not only will you save money, put you can show chicks all your cool car scars.

My damn car jumped up an bit me when I was chaning the struts, bastard.

Good luck, and never , ever, ever, ever, go to a dealer, b/c they'll pull your pants down and ram it in hard.
