Re: 2001 Intrique

Well the sensor in the exhaust manifold shouldnt have much to do with it, its mostly an emissions control that makes sure you have the proper fuel mix, and usually if its faulty youll run rich.

The second sensor however monitors the catalytic conveter to make sure its operating properly.

Im thinking it could very likely be the catalytic converter is clogged up. Try hitting it with something relatively heavy, like a jack handle, and see if you hear anything rattling aorund in there.
