ok... Did i miss something??? (CEL)

I had 03 08, 03 04, 10 01. Two of those are 02 sensors (front bank wasn't connnected) and closed loop for the rear bank. I also took off the IACV and picked away at the carbon buildup inside the intake manifold. Well after reconnecting (making sure they had a good connection) and RESETTING the computer the car still has the codes. Stupid OBDII cars. Any other suggestions?

Its probably your knock sensor 0304 giving you the o2 codes

And OI! its the OBII thats helping you diagnose the fault

Thanks for the tip. You are right, but they are also sensitive systems too.

So I went to Autozone today, and they connected the computer to my car, and I received a rear o2 code.... Do those scanners pick up the knock sensor code? Also, I have noticed just a tad of power loss.
