Default Bad 02 senser

Ran an scan on my GS today and found that Bank2/sensor2 02 was lazy. But also on the techII I noticed that I had miss fires all over the place, 1,8,4 as I was riding down the street. So, I'm thinking the opti and the 02 is bad, or can a bad 02 cause this?

Thanks,
Dj :flag

The Lazy sensor,.. is that in front of or behind the Cat?

I'd start w/ the sensor,.. thn move onto the more expesive parts,... like plugs, wires,... then opti.
i.e. I wouldn't do the opti unless I had to.

Thanks for the reply ZylaRace, It is the post cat sensor, so since that one is for monitoring the cat, can it have the same affect as the pre-cat sensors.

Thanks,
Dj

I believe the post cat sensor has no affect on the ecm's fuel trims.

:iagree: The post cat O2 sensor doesn't affect BLM's.

Well, I hate to shot-gun this problem, but I'm going to replace the 02 sensors for a start. Something that affects the BLM is cause her to run real rich, my exhaust tips are black on the outside rim...Since I have access to a techII what parameters should I make note of ie, BLM, MAF....

Thanks,
