Default problems with o2s

Any one have insufficient o2 sensor bank one sensor one and insufficient o2 sensor bank two sensor one after installing long tube headers on their truck or any problems of that sort. My truck is running very weird and at full throttle and at a hi rpm it back fires sometimes and when the ac is on it kinda misfires too.

are you tuned? did you remove the spark plugs from the head when installing the LTs? recheck your spark plug wires make sure then are all the way on, and not burnt up.
i bet its your spark plug, or spark plug wire.

im rocking Bosch platinum 2 or some bs i think. your truck having a mild misfire will cause it to go "lean" recheck your spark plug wires. it cost my buddy 75.00 just for them to tell him his #7 plug wire wasnt all the way on. i wouldnt change them if it wasnt doing it before, but w.e you want.

I get that too. I remember in my 00 there were some issues with the placement of the O2 sensors. They wouldn't heat up enough or something
