    Q? do the coil boots match the plug tubes? (wires) Febi and bosch both have different resistance ratings.

But from the sounds of what alot of you guys are saying the CEL is just something that can come on for silly reasons, and go off just as soon, so I really shouldnt stress it(which is usually my problem).

    I dont know on the coil boots, ill take a look at them this weekend. But here is an update: reset the computer, drove it for about 200 miles, light came on and went off in aabout five minutes. Then it came back on again yesterday and didnt go off after 50 miles of driving, accept during very even freeway driving like before. Reset the computer, it came right back. So, I had a o2 sensor from the other side that I knew wa good and I put it in, didnt reset the computer, and the light went right out and hasnt been back. So, I would guess I am going to be eating them up. Its only the passenger side that is bad, drivers seems fine.

    Doesn't make any difference... It is anywhere between 1500 to 2200 ohm. However, the new type of boot only let you measure one time instant... not continuous ohm reading.
