i have a 96 ford f150 4x4 with the 4.9 inline v6 auto tranny. it is lifted a lil bit with 31's. just did plugs, wires, cap and rotor, pcv, and air filter change.

Stupit question


Im getting 6mpg with it. I have a 2 codes a p0141, and I want to say a p0136. This is a oxygen sensor bank 1 sensor2. The truck has 2 cats. there are 2 oxygen sensors on manifold and 1 in between the cats. So from my understandings its the sensor that is on the manifold closest one to cat right?

Truck sounds like a exhaust leak also but i dont see any carbon built up around the manifold or where manifold to down pipe join.
Any ideas or should i just replace the o2 sensor first? I really should be getting like 15mpg with the truck. And I dont want to just start throwing money at it that I dont really have.

First of all, your truck isn't a V-6. You have a inline 6. Replace the o2 sensors, but don't expect to get 15mpg out of it. lol

2x4 maybe 15mpg, 4x4 NOT!!
And I was going to say WT? inline v-6?
That 300 inline is a great engine. was looking for one when I bought my '99. I got the 5.4 and love it but had a 240 cu in inline before and though it was great. Sold it with 155k on it.
