Passenger side lean after H/C swap
We just did a Head and Cam swap and now throwing DTC Code p0200. Scanning shows passenger side lean, right side 02 sensor is almost flat lined around 200mV. We switched the 02s around and still real lean on HO2 B2S1. Anyone know where to start trouble shooting this?

These are the front 02s and are working right, they are only showing that there is a problem on the passenger side injectors. We switched sides with the 02s and the problem stayed on the passenger side. For some reason that side is not getting enough fuel. All connections, plugs and wires seem fine.

I had a driver's side rich problem. The passenger side was rich too, but not enough to set the code. Do you have Autotap or something you can use to monitor your long term fuel trims? Mine turned out to be the MAF calibration and a quick update by my tuner corrected the problem.
Also check you injector harness and make sure they are all attached correctly, maybe even pull each off and re-install checking for bent pins, etc. Check your injector fuses as well.
Check here for more help, keep us posted on what you find.

my suggestion is to check the inectors as well. make sure they are all plugged in.

All the above was done, scanning with EFILive shows the ltrim are not learning. It has gone into a open loop type of mode and is not learning fueling. We are thinking there might be a bad injector on the right side...? All pins, wires, injectors, ect all look ok. We are going to switch out the injectors, need to go with larger ones anyhow. Will see if that takes care of it.

Yes, they checked the #2 plug as it also had a po302 with po300,at one point, but after clearing the code the misfire codes didn't come back on, only the PO200 code. The plug did show a little lean. BTW, when they did the H/C swap, they put in new AC Delco Iridium plugs and MSD wires. We have double, triple checked the wires and are all on good. We have run that combo of plugs and wires on quite a few H/C cars with good results.

coil packs could be another culprit. dont exclude them either. that could cause the miss as well as the injectors.

Did they do a tune? Could be the tune as well.

Well, turns out it was a bad MSD spark plug wire. It looked fine, but when they changed it out, everything was fine. Who would have thought a bad plug wire would cause a injector circuit DTC code to set!
