    Do you have LT's? And has the car been tunned since the cam install?

      Yeah its got long tubes, and it was tuned but when i bought the car the guages didnt work and the pcm had to be replaced to fix it, so, no more tune.

        That my friend is your problem. The misfire codes are due to the cam. See if you can find someone w/ tunning software to help you out. Mike

          I know that but it ran fine for like 2 weeks when i first got it and now it throwing a high voltage code for bank 2 senser 1. So its just dumping in fuel. Do you think a tune will fix it ?

            I highly recommend Mike K's on Ford Avenue/Northline an like 14th Street in Wyandotte. My family has been using Mike for years and years. If you go talk to Kevin or Mike and tell them Bob Daniels sent you.

              Yes the tune should fix that problem. Your O2 could be bad, but I wouldn't replace it until it's tunned since your only bandaiding the problem. Just my .02

                  You can't be sure if they're good. I've seen brand new O2's take a dump in like 15 minutes

                      The codes will take 3 or 4 driving cycles to remove itself after you swap them.
