Or you could back probe the o2 and see if it's functioning. Even easier would be to hook up a scan tool and watch live data. You should see it fluctuating rapidly between .1v-1v, if it's stagnant then you either have a bad o2 or your car's not warmed up. If it is fluctuating then cause a vacuum leak and see if the o2 reacts accordingly to the lean condition.

First make sure you don't have any broken wires, this is more common than you might think. The wire doesn't even have to be broken all of the way through but if it's open or corroded you've got resistance where it shouldn't be.

The engine light has been staying off. I filled up the gas tank with regular the past two times from this local station. I wanted to join in on the low gas price fun with regular and it seems to be working. How does Kaiser say it? "Save BIG Money!"

This really helps with my work schedule. I don't have to brake into any corners.

The wheel set ups are 18x8 Et47 with 285s up front and 18x8.5 et50 255s in the rear.
The story is Bimmer Bob (?) did an experiment to try and counter act the understeer the e46 chassis by putting big rubber up front. These were modified Evo wheels machined to an e46 set up.
The seller said the car would get squirrely in the rear under hard braking.
I wanted some quality wheels that could work on the m3 down the line.

I hope it doesn't rain while you've got those on! I still demand a launch video.

Got these mounted, 255x35x18, on all 4 corners. Don't grip like the slicks but I'm not wrestling the wheel down rough roads anymore.
