98 Mountaineer V8 5.0
I tried to post his in the 911 section but it wouldn't let me.

Well this is weird i just got a P0153 error code on my 98 Mercury Mountaineer V8 5.0 today. I just cleaned out the IAC 2 days ago with CRC Mass Air Flow Sensor Cleaner and I let it dry for hours before i installed it back and everything went back in alright and drove fine (No CEL) after i installed everything back in. However today 2 days later i put a bottle of the red bottle ISO Heet that has fuel injector cleaner in it today and right after i put it in i took a drive to mix it around in the tank and less than about 4 miles later i got a CEL P0153 code. I cleared the code with my OBD-II Scanner and took it out for a short ride again the same route i just took when the light came on and it did not come back on. My question is what would of caused the CEL The ISO HEET? Because when i cleaned the IAC 2 days earlier it didn't trigger the CEL. What do you people think doesn't a O2 Sensor CEL Code stay lit until it's replaced? :confused: Thanks
 






It needs new o2 sensor, common problem.
 






Does anybody know the Bosch 02 Sensor part number for this location Bank 2 Sensor 1. Is it the Bosch 15716 or the Bosch 15718?? Any does anyone know where this one is exactly located at on 5.0?? Thnaks i appreciate it....
 






It is the sensor on the driver side and is right under the oil pan/transmission. It usually goes bad because oil leaks on it.
