I have cleaned the maf sensor, cleaned the plugs which were sootyand replaced the air filter. the engine management light now goes out but the 02 emmission light still stays on. I intend to replace the pollen filter next because it came with the air filter. will replacing the 02 sensor cure this problem or should I just put the car out of its misery?
