Hi guys & gals,

Well I know there has been many threads on the 02 CEL issue, but the dreaded rear 02 sensor errors continue with the Kooks High flow CATs on my MSRT8. I installed the non-fouler 02 extenders and it didn't make a difference at all. This is fun......has anyone got a sure fix for this problem?

It looks like there are folks that don't get the P0420/P0430 errors (lucky ones) and the majority that do. I ended up buying an ODBII scanner to check and erase the codes.

Iinstead of installing a fan switch to go with my new 180 degree thermostat, I should install a three-way super switch to manually reset Fuse 11 AND the CEL codes from the ODBII as well ;-)

Question: GSM lists a 6.1L 02 simulator on their website. Does anyone have this and does it work?

Even though the returning CEL is annoying, I still love the car. My thought on headers and CATs for these cars is, unless you are ready to do heads and cam...and some software package, they aren't worth it (CAT-backs and CAI are!).

Thanks fellas!

GSMs original O2s did not work, but they have new ones now that they say fixes our issues.

I'm ordering one so stand by. I'll let you know for sure if it works:)

Once I get the beast back, I will have the 02 sims on as well. I will have the offroad exhaust so I will be curious to see these work as well. :)

I have also read that Kooks has a fix for this as well. At least for the GCSRT8's. You may want to give them a call....

Thanks 1bad4dr.

Btw, noticed in your mod list on your website that you have the polished intake? Did this come with your SC package or did you order separately from GSM.....and is it also ported? I love the look of the polished intake but am not ready to put down the bucks for a SC or Head/Cam package from them yet so am looking to get the 6.1 polished intake separately.

Thanks!

What brand, where did you get it, how much, does it have data logging capabilities, and how do you like it.

Electrical tape is cheaper and easier..:mrgreen:

Call John over there and ask.

If someone with stock cats can do some data logging on Bank 1 & 2 sensor 2...I could have sims made for ~$25.00...I'm willing to get them custom made if someone is willing to do the R&D...

GSM O/2 Sims

I was supposed to have my updated GSM O/2 sims this week. If they make it here tomorrow I'll put them on Saturday and let you know how they work. I am also putting the Kooks off road pipes on so this will be a good test. Bill
