Just got finished swapping in a rebuilt transmission and the engine is running/idling rough, is very low on power, and threw the following codes on my Actron CP9185:
-P0151 O2S Cat Low Volts 2/1
-P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
Today I went back under there and inspected the O2 sensor wiring and reseated the Bank 2 Sensor 1 connector, then cleared codes and started it up. Misfire is noticeable at idle in park, with no codes thrown yet. This makes me think the O2 sensor is not actually the problem, but the code is a symptom of another problem.
The truck sat in the garage with the battery disconnected for about 2 months while I removed/replaced the transmission and had it rebuilt. Engine ran fine with some mild shuddering when accelerating off idle when cold before all this.
This makes me think something got jostled during the swap, but I can't think or what it is. It did take me some time to get the dipstick lined up which involved pushing a prybar up from behind the car to move the wiring looks back there aside.
On my to-do list already is a swap of the fuel filter. I bought this truck 6 months ago and never did that. The gas tank was nearly empty when I test drove it yesterday and it took 21 gallons of fuel to fill back up - which is odd since I don't remember running it quite that low.
I think my next steps will be to replace the fuel filter and monitor the fuel pressure levels for low pressure, or I guess if the pressure doesn't hold after shutting the engine off it could be leaky injectors. I'm hoping my scanner will show the fuel pressure readings, connecting a gauge is sounds like the opposite of fun.
Truck has about 91,000 miles. Not sure if it matters, but the trans would not shift past 2nd gear which led me to pulling it out.
Any ideas/comments are welcome, thank you.
