UPDATE-today it was running really rough and the check engine light started blinking so I pulled over read the codes,
-multiple random cylinder misfire, 1,3&7 I believe
-evap system leak detected
-O2 sensor circuit high voltage bank 1 sensor 1&2
Seems like it got worse today. Gah this thing is frustrating!
I I’m plugged the O2 sensors and drove to work, still had the drop/surge in rpms at steady throttle around 2300-2700 rpm. That’s where it’s the worst. Not bad over 3000 though. CEL came on (expected) for sensor 1 high voltage and sensor 1 & 2 heat circuit but no misfires.
After it warmed up, while idling I watched both exhaust pipes and definitely one is richer than the other. It’s the exhaust run with the sensors in it. Has wet black soot in it.
