It is rich on bank two, we put new cats and 4 new sensors, but it is still rich. Any ideas why.

Leaking injectors come to mind How are plugs on that side? Any with black soot?

We replaced the plugs already. It seems better for like 10 miles then bank two plugs soot again.

Then metering body seems to be the culprit or all injectors on right bank leaking.
