41 I believe is the Primary o2 sensor. Did you swap it out with new one? It's causing your car to run in "limp mode". Try doing an engine check again to make sure its 41.

The primary o2 is the first one on the cat rite?...cuz im running the set up of an obd2 with an obd1 computer so the second isnt used. i still have code 41 which is the heater unit of the o2 sensor. any suggestions? i have switched out the o2 on the first on already.

make sure you reset your ecu or else it will still think it's messed up

Check the resistance of the o2 heater. It should be 10 - 40 ohms. It's the two black wires. If the heater checks ok, you have a wiring problem.

Well, that got a response! It's a fairly common problem. I guess this thread is officially highjacked now.
