No I extended the wires myself. I'd check to see if the extenders are good first. What other mods do you have?

I don't know if the CAI would be an issue. I don't have one. I use the stock intake with a K&N. Have you checked the extenders to see if they're good?

I will check the O2 extensions this weekend when I change the oil. I need to pass inspection by May 4th I can't fail againg I talked to a friend who has a OBD2 scan tool than has the ability to delete codes, he told me that if I delete the code using his scanner right before the emissions test that I will pass... Do you think that it is possible?? have any of you guys tried this before?? Thanks for your help....

Hey Greg. po420 and po421 have to do with the 02's. Fords come in all the time with that code. You might want to make sure they are plugged in first. Make sure the right ones are in the right holes also. If all else fails, replace the O2's and make sure youre MIL's are plugged in.

Hey casper, I do not have MIL's Because I was told that I didnt need them because my car has cats.. mi codes are po420 po430. Do you think that It could be that the O2 sensors are bad? or do you think I should get MIL's??? Thanks for your help!!!!

Even if they are not bad, still get them. Even if you have cats, the o2's are not reading right, there are less cats than stock and youre computer tells you how much gas to give or not give with stock exhaust. And you dont need to replace the o2's if they are bad, because the MIL elimanators will give good readings to youre computer. So yes buy the MIL elimanators

Cut power to the car via the battery for a few mins, start'er up and drive around. They shouldn't turn on again.

Hes asking how long it would take before they would come back on if they were to come on. After shuting the MIL off. It takes 3 drive cycles for the check engine light to come back on for that reason.
