Ok, first question. Got my CEL on saturday night, pulled the code sunday at Autozone and it came back as P1151, something about the heated O2 sensor not switching, don't have the paper with me. I was wondering if that could be a bad O2 sensor maybe? It said possible causes were dirty MAF, bad fuel pressure or fuel leaks, or exhaust leak near that O2 sensor. It said on bank 2 sensor 1, which one is that? pre cat on drivers side? I cleaned the MAF and unplugged the battery and it runs considerably better now (kinda hard to beleive but oh well I'm happy) and the CEL hasn't come back on but maybe it will. I'm pretty sure I've got an exhaust leak, which I"ll probably be doing duals around christmas time because I want them, and get the problem fixed at the same time.
Anyone ever had the code and know what fixed it?

Next, I need a new drivers seat. Or at least mount... There's a little tab type thing on the front left corner of the rail that attaches like the seat rail to the power rail part of the seat, and that broke. Don't really know why or how, but it did. I'm wondering should I just get a new power rail? How hard is it to install and how much does a whole new thing cost (the power movement was f'd up anyways which probably contributed to this), or should I just buy a new seat? If I just need a new seat, how much does a like new one cost? I'm not getting a POS one out of a junkyard, and I'm afraid to even call a ford dealership and ask about anything... they wanted like 18 bucks for a carriage bolt. F them. Or, I"m considering getting racing seats... but those are expensive. lol. I was looking, what if I get some off brand seats? I know they might be a little ricerish, but are they any less safe (significantly) than like corbeau or sparco seats? I would just get one but that would be effing ricerish.

So.

How to fix P1151 code?

What seat option should I go with?

find seats out of a mach/bullitt/cobra, and try replacing the o2 sensor
