ok so I'm a bonehead, and I forgot to hook up the engine coolant temp sensor under the #3 intake rail after replacing the head, gasket, etc. It was very hard to start at first, but ran well after. It threw fault codes for ect (#2, 123) and lambda too lean/rich at idle (#6, 224). Is it possible bothwere due to my bonehead move? How do I find out if it was too lean or too rich? I cleared the codes, but have to go to work, wifey will be driving today and we will see if it throws another CEL. Any comments are appreciated.
