I just recently change the air filter on my car and put in a K&N Air-Intake and DC-Sports Headers. The Check Engine Light came on and i use a diagnostic tool to erase the code which read " the O2 sensor" today i went out for a drive and while driving my car the engine just went off. so i put the car in park and restarted the car and it did, but while driving agian the engine went off agian and it did that for another to more times. can the O2 sensor be the cause of this? if not do you have any ideas what is causing this?

Thank you.

Hi, honda had real big problems with the distirbutor on thoses cars, try replacing it and get back to me. The dealer will have the unit you need. An 02 sensor will probably not make the engine stall.
