3-how to diagnost them?
my questions are long & involve a lot info
any information is highly apprciated or web
thank you!
Answer The most common codes are usually oxygen sensor codes.
The reason is if the car has a vacuum leak it can set off the sensor.
Diagnosing the problem will require you to spend a whole lot of money in diagnostic equipment and time for training to operate the equipment. Or you can buy a generally basic obd2 code reader ($around 120-180) that comes with an i.d. book and info on operating it.
