Well there's why you have a check engine light. You killed the o2 and cut it's signal.

It needs to be there and functional for no light.

ok fellas long time no see since i still dont have the internet but heres an update of whats been going on.

the aluminum thermostat had a leak so i hade 2 add some silicone from the auto store, its for valve covers and its heat resitant. works great!! its a blue silicone btw if u wanna kno. leaks are gone.

there was alot of oil in the engine bay so i cleaned it and found out it was coming from the top 2 bolts under the plastic cover one the engine. i also added the silicone. so far so good. the 02 sensor i still have not replaced but i did clean it enough to the point that the check engine light turns off.

the car had stop shuttin off for about 2 months and it started till i fixed these issues. so far its good. still has the 18s on. i went back 2 the stock air filter tho. thats about it. been very busy with the new house i just got.

hope this helps someone in the future~
