Start with the upstream o2 and see how that does. About $40 on rockauto.com for the good NTK brand

Just for a reference I bought the Denso brand from Rockauto and had no problems.

What is the o2 sensor code?
There are like 10 different o2 sensor codes and they all mean something
A lean upstream sensor doesn't mean it's bad.

How about start with what the code says instead of throwing money at it?
