I have a misfire problem on my 1996 LX450 with a 1997 LC engine swap.
I just installed the engine and keep getting misfires on cylinders 3 and 6.
So, I got the Blue Driver and app and I've been monitoring the data live.
I've had lots of problems with O2 sensors in the past so I have a sneaking suspicion a faulty one could be causing me problems now but not triggering a code for it.
In the past, I had issues with faulty O2 sensors that also didn't trigger codes.
On the live data from the Blue Driver app I'm getting 99.2% short term fuel trim on one O2 sensor and never more than 10.2% on the other.
I can tell from the exhaust that it is running VERY rich.
The Check Engine light is on and flashing.
When I replaced the spark plugs all six were soaked in gas so if there's an injector problem it isn't because it isn't getting fuel to the cylinder.
I've cleaned the Mass Air Flow sensor.
I do have a torn intake boot currently sealed up with duck tape until the new one arrives early next week.
I'm thinking I must have a bad O2 sensor but I was thinking that before.
I guess I was wondering if any of you have used BlueDriver and whether you could trust the data.
The sensor plugs into the OBDII port and connects to your device via bluetooth.
I'm thinking I have at least one bad O2 sensor.
I had a 1998 Jeep Cherokee that was running like scheisse and gave me all kinds of codes but never one for a faulty O2 sensor.
I then replaced it with a cheap Bosch one and it just got worse complete with backfiring which I am also getting now with the LX.
I was then forced to go to the Jeep stealership with my tail between my legs to see if they could help.
Within about five minutes the tech told me my problem was the Bosch O2 sensor.
I bought the one at the dealership and it worked flawlessly from then on.
