Took hood off to paint, ended up with a dead short somewhere for like a week B4 I found out that the lamp underneath the hood was melted together the two wires were melted so I fixed the dead short anyways while the short was going on I ended up getting O2 sensor codes so I cut the exhaust off I still have all the O2 sensors but they're not plugged in and my truck runs like **** I don't know what to do somebody told me to take the two end sensors and take them out of the pipe and then tie them onto the pipe leave them plugged in and then hook up the two front ones and it's supposed to make it run better or back to normal or something what y'all think about that cuz I don't know what to do here man and I need my truck I need it bad so if you can help me I'd sure appreciate it what I have to do to use this truck is about every 500 ft I have to turn it off and turn it on again while I'm driving in order to reset the computer so I can get some throttle response other than that it's running in limp mode and it really sucks. thank you.
