how much was the scanner.... i tried to get one at autzone and they told me they don't make on for older cars.

i have heard people that get alot of codes like you are sometimes they disconnect the battery for 15minutes then try it again so old codes don't get brought up and only new ones do.

scanner was $30

thats cool, i go run out and flipmy breaker then post the new codes in a half hour, should be long enuff to forget the codes i suppose

all last night, now i have only one code its giving me code 189

HEGO sensor not switching. Could this be caused from an exhaust leak? i think i may have one, or could this be from a bad HEGO sensor? any idea any one?

Check for an exahust leak, fix it if you have one, then clear the codes. Check for codes again.

189 - system at rich adaptive limit at part throttle, system rich (left)
