LS: golly-gosh-darn worthless piece of junk!

I had to take my LS in for service. Had an O2 sensor go out.

Nev4r had failure like that on my Vette!

I'll never buy another Ford product again.

Wow! I never thought I'd hear that from you Chris. What happened? Did the car just shut down?

Chris - I heard they cut alot of corners on the red ones.

FYI - The black ones are the good LSes.

You make it sound like the engine blew up or something. Its a $70 part and a DYI job.

What code were you throwing? Hopefully you werent throwing a rich or lean code and automatically assumed it was because the 02 sensor was at fault.

Satire.

Live it.

Love it.






I still love my baby! The Vette can't throw codes or have failing O2 sensors, 'cause it's older than me...

Re: LS: goddam worthless piece of junk!

I don't remember the code, but it was switching slow. Intermittent rough idle. All good now.

mopar440man, please check the dates on teh threads before bringing back old threads. If you would like assistance with replacing the ECU, please start another thread, rather than ressurecting an old and unrelated one. Thanks.
