Sorry to pick everyones brain again.
I was getting error code 14. Bad coolant sensor etc. so I went out and bought a new sensor.
Before i could replace it the code changed to 45. Bad Lambda O2 sensor.
My guess is the engine running rich because of the temp sensor "fouled" the O2 sensor.
My question is this: Can I clean the Lambda sensor and replace it (and if so with what?) or do I need to replace both if I go that route?
Here's the history: 95 Disco 164K miles reluctant to start when hot. Sometimes won't start at all till it cools down. Replaced coolant sensor on the manifold and this had no effect. Recently tuned up and I checked the connection on the right side O2 sensor and it seems fine.
Is there a test I could try to check the sensor and it's connection before I replace it?
Thanks
Eric
