- a unplugged O2 sensor.
- a broken wire from the O2 sensor B to the pin C8 on the ECU C plug.
- a unshielded wire that is picking up EMP from another wire. (very common in getto swaps)
- a bad O2 sensor.
- or a O2 sensor that is not in the factory location and not reading in the proper heat range. Remember that the JDM OBD0 ECU's needed 2 (two...meaning 1 + 1) O2 sensors that are reading cylinders 1 & 4 and 2 & 3.
Hope this helps.

Both the PR3 and PWO need the two O2 sensors to run correctly. Many people will tell you that they only run one O2 sensor, but I'm telling you, as will the Hondata guys, that you should run both to get a PR3 or PWO to work the way it was designed to.
Also, the OBD0 non-heated O2 sensors are not suppose to place at the end of the header. They are suppose to be placed about where the oil dip stick sits. O2 sensor A needs to be in the #1 or 4 runner, and O2 sensor B needs to be in the #2 or 3 runner. A good muffler shop can weld the O2 bungs in for a little charge.
