In the future, if you've got the CEL on, it would be nice to know that on your first post, not close to a 1/2 a day later.

However, those 2 codes are for the O2 sensors, A & B, which are both primary O2's. As far as I know, the old B16's had 2 in the exhaust manifold (someone wanna verify that), one to monitor 2 cylinders each.

EDIT: Please also note the links in my sig...one of them is for ECU codes.

What year and model do you have? Are you sure it's not a code 12?

Default nope

it is a code 1 and 2. the reason i didnt say anything about the cell is cuz i had an earlier post about the code 1 and 2 but i didnt get any response....so i figured i might approach it a different way.

i have my wires hooked up to the type r header sensor but im still getting the codes even after i reset the ecu. i thought this might be causing the hesitation in my acceleration... but i was hoping somebody might say different.
