    After getting a check engine signal I retightened the gas cap then
    discnncted battery for 10 mins which gave only 1 minute of the check engine
    light being off so this AM had Auto Zone read the code and it's 1166 -"fuel
    meter related" according to AZone guy.This 84K flawless miles car runs
    great.Suggestions?
    Thanks

    P1166? As in OBD-II reader form Autozone?

    That seems like oxygen sensor heater malfunction. Verify the failure
    with ohmmeter test. If so, get a Bosch *planar* type sensor. Autozone
    will lend sockets for free. Do both upstream and downstream, might as
    well.

    I don't like those P0420-causing Denso old thimble sensors.

    You need to try the psychic hotline instead. They might be able to
    guess what make and model car ou're talking about.

    I hate the Dodgers.

    O2 sensors aren't typically covered under the emissions warranty.
