Thanks...I will give it a try. Cheaper than a dealer visit. I bought the tech manuals and parts manual on e-bay for about $40 so together I hope to save money and get my old motorhead juices flowing again.

If you go to a local car parts store, most will hook up a obd2 for free. My local Autozone does it for free.

Your O2 sensors have heaters in them and it looks like one of the heaters has failed -- I would check the connectors to your oxygen sensors and if they are ok then you probably need to change out your after cat O2 sensor.
