    wide band or tune gone bad?

    So last week my wide band started going to lean air at various time during my driving I put my foot down and it would come back normal. Its a 09 Pontiac G8 Gt just bolt ons it really doesn't run any different and wen I logged it both front o2's read 920's @ WOT my rear o2's are off cause I run a catless X

    Is the wideband in the actual exhaust? Or is it a tail pipe sniffer? You may have an exhaust leak near the sensor.

    It is in the exhaust where the rear o2 on the left side belong, no leaks no frrayed or shorted wire everything has been unplugged and replugged. It is a PLX device about 3 months old only thing ive done differenly was last week i ran the car at the track on 110 octane i only put 3 gallons in the car but the car was damn near empty ran 8 passes on it then when i left the track i filled it up with 93.

    Was the 110 leaded or unleaded? If leaded, it may have fouled the sensor.
