Now that I seem to have gotten past the MAF sensor issue I have to continue to do this:
http://www.obdii.com/drivecycle.html
Twice a day since I have two opportunities a day. This is in an effort to get the catalyst monitor to set so I can get the OBDII test done and renew my tags. This is really hard to accomplish!! I have successfully done it but wound up tripping a hard DTC for catalyst efficiency about every fifth time. Since I ran the cat cleaner through it I will need to complete the drive cycle three more times in order to see if it sets the monitor or if it trips the DTC again. If it trips the DTC again I will be replacing all four O2 sensors and the cats. If that doesn't do it to the stealership it goes........
UGH! Not so Lucky of a truck after all. May have been better if this one would have been smacked rather than Clifford.
On a brighter note I drove Butterscotch for the first time in nine months. Good ol girl! Has never let me down in 16 years! Even when she had a bad tranny she drove to get the replacement tranny and back.
