Hey all
So after having my car sit all winter (been away at school) I bought bunch of maintenance goodies and what not to get her prepped for he summer. She starts up, wants to die, but then I give a little r3v and she hangs on and idles. Problem is I get a check engine when idling, it goes away after i give a little rev. after doing the stomp test turns out to be the 1222 code which is the lambda control code.
Essentially I'm idling rich or lean for more ham 10 seconds. Could this be he result of old gas? Or is it more likely to be an O2 sensor. I would imagine if it was the O2 sensors I would get the check engine throughout the rev range.
Just want to know what is more likely before I spend money unecessarily
