code 45 need some advice
heres the deal... driving home and notice a reasonable loss in power. id give the disco more gas and still no power down shift still no power so i pulled off the road and sure enough my check engine light came on as soon as i stop.
the code display is showing code 45, which is "Lambda sensor B - right bank"
i looked at all the connections real quick and didn't notice anything wrong....
so i let the disco cool off for about 10 mins. and then hit the road.... the disco drove the rest of the way home just fine like nothing was wrong at all.
does anyone have any imput on this or dealt with this could it be bad o2 sensors?

I wouldn't reccomend off brand sensors. I've heard stories of people having a lot of problems with the cheap stuff. Most of the cheap ones just come with a wire and not a connector which is all well and good if you can wire it together and heat treat it real well. I've never tried but like I said I've heard of too many failing.

ok so driving home today still waiting on o2 sensors the disco all the sudden started back firing and lost most all power pulled off road let cool down and 30 mins later drove home fine....
got home o2 sensors were in so i threw em in ... changed air filter and cleaned MAF real quick
here are a few things ive noticed and now i have a new problem!!!
first is i had my idle set at around 800rpm with the old o2 sensors when i changed em out and fired the truck up it was like at 2300 rpm and didnt go back down so i reset the idle and all was fine drove around and it was awesome......
went into walmart and came back out and it started up and was barley idling sounds liek no fuel.... let it warm up and drives fine kill the motor and start again ... same thing...

update...
drove around for awhile after clearing codes and nothing else has come up feels like it has way better throttle response and hasn't done any wierd sputtering stalling it was doing at initial start up...
praying i didnt kill the maf!!!!!
dint really spray the maf mostly just throttle body and pvc tubing...
some crc electrical cleaner might have gotten in the maf though?
long drive to la tomorrow hope all goes well....
need to save my money to build my half-rack and buy two true track's not maf's and sensors...
