You have to reset your ECU. The easiest way is to disconnect your negative terminal on the battery for 10 minutes and then reconnect. Your SES light will be off. Or you can go to Autozone and they'll clear your code for you.

My theory is that if you get past a week without a CEL with the mechanical o2 fix then it will never come back. Before I did the fix I would always keep reseting the ECU and would never last more than a few days without a CEL. I think if you make it past a week you will never see it again.

It goes onto your second O2 sensor that's on your midpipe, not the sensor that's on the downpipe. You'll remove the O2 sensor, install the undrilled then drilled anti-fouler, then finally the sensor, very easy. I have no CEL yet with this mod while using RRM's downpipe.

I just read this. My down pipe doesn't have a bung so where do I mount the spark plug foulers? Do you have any mor info on this? Do I install it on the cat? the first (pre)cat and o2 sensor was removed with my stock headers.


Now I don't have an evo but I have kamakazi Headers and down pipe trying to get the ses/cel off for Va State Inspection in 2 weeks
