O2 Sensors?

RE: O2 Sensors?
Bank '1' is always the side of the block that the 'number one' cylinder is on.. Right/Passenger forward cylinder for the 4.0..You generally won't get a P0171 code if the catalyst monitors (rear sensors) after cat fail.. If it's reading a lean condition, its should be working fine.. A good way to diagnose a bad 02 sensor if no scan equipment is avaiable, is to swap the sensors from bank 1 to the bank 2 position and see if the fault follows the swap.. You would/should then set a P0174 after moving the sensors.. This way helps to prevent replacing good sensors since there are a number of issues or conditions that can set a lean code..
The sensors are numbered as 11 and 12 for the right bank identifying their position, (bank 1 sensor 1 and so on) 11 being forward in the stream, as is 21 and 22 for the left bank..

Hayapower you are awsome! My wifes 01 Explorer with 87000 is bringing up codes PO171 and PO174 I will try to clean the MAF tonight when she gets home from work.
If I use a can tap and line fuel injectin cleaner, where do YOU hook it up? A friend at a Monroe just uses the brake booster vacume line, I think just cause it's easier. Is that OK? Let me know and thanks.

Again, this is only a first step..
A common failure for this engine is the upper/lower intake manifold orings failing and bleeding unmetered are (vacuum leak) in.. Along with the codes, it may have an unstable idle when cold that will smooth as the engine heats/expands and the leak seals..
Worth a try, and also look for any other unmetered leak points PCV ect....

No rough idel just codes, the MAF looked clean as could be. ,the battery is still unhooked at this time, and has been for over 15 minutes so I hope code will reset. My wife has shopping to do latter I will see what happens then.
Also as I had asked where is the best place or proper, to hook up fuel injection cleaner line? Thanks

I have a 02 Explorer XLT v6, 4.069,000 miles, my CEL came on a couple months ago, had this thing into the Ford Dealership, they put it on the computer and came back with P0401 and P1131 codes, and told me I needed to replace all the 02 Sensors, DPFE, IAC, MAF, EGR, and the PCV Valve. and wanted $1300.00 to do so.
I got a code reader, and pulled the codes myself, and got a P0132 (Upstream Oxygen Sensor circuit high voltage (right cylinder bank) is this the O2 closest to the engine on the Drivers side? if so, I changed that 02 back a couple months ago. Should it still be throwing this code if that is a new sensor in the bank?
I am also pulling a P0401 (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) (EGR) valve, insufficient flow detected.) I would assume that I need to replace the EGR, Correct?
Pulling code P1131 as well.
If someone can give me some much needed input, I sure would appreciate it.
Thanks
