My 98 Honda Civic check engine light is back on again! The 1st time was in 2006. My ran fine but would not pass inspection. I needed a catalytic converter. Passed then not long afterwards the light was back on. My car wld not pick up speed, jerked. I needed an oxygen sensor. Things were fine. Then some 11 thousand miles later, according to my mechanic, I needed another oxygen sensor...along with a CV Joint. I can't recall if the engine light was on but during this visit. (I was there for an oil change and inspection. Recently, I had to replace the catalytic converter, which messed up my muffler (both under warranty) and lol they said I need another oxygen sensor! Of course the engine light is on, but there is only a 23 thousannd miles diffreence since the last sensor. I read cars from 96 i think go for at least 100 thousand mile on an oz sensor. Anyway, the car jerks, doesn't pick up speed....I got a diagnistic reading yesterday and was told I had 5 misfire codes: P0300, 301, 302, 303, and 304. I read up a bit and learned this could mean wiring, spark plugs...I did catch-Anything that causes lean fuel mixture...So, do I really need another oz sensor?
