Issues-need advice!
i am having several issues with my 1997 I30, I have replaced the KS and Bank 1 Front o2 as the codes were listed. however; the KS still won't clear and I have tried to take it to autozone several times to no avail. I am also having some overheating issues while running the A/C. if I don't run it no overheating, but when I do it creeps up within 20 min. Any advice is well appreciated. The codes originally thrown were p0325, p0130, p0600, p0500. any dvice grealty appreciated. The only other symptoms are when I go to start the car sometimes it will stumble for a second and then die, second attept following ALWAYS starts as if it never happened.
I'm lost, any advice or insight is extremely helpful and appreciated.

How many miles?
Did you manually clear the KS/other fault codes after you performed the services?
Best thing is to start fresh. Clear the ECM and see what codes come back. If the KS fault wont clear when you manually reset the ECM, get to autozone and see if their scanner makes a difference. As for the starting issue, I had the exact same symptoms. 1st try was hardly ever successful. When it was, rough initial idle tried to stall but catches up quick. The 2nd try was always successful and gave no indication of a starting problem. I just did 2 things which either one or both have cured that problem. I cleaned out my EGR port/tube and replaced my TPS. I had fault codes for both though. If you have a multimeter, you can test your KS, TPS, and EGR components. Search for how to test these things.
Overheating- Make sure your AUX/rad. fans come on. If those are OK, then it's a sticky thermostat.
