    Default Pre cat delete - EML light

    I was looking to buy a pre cat delete pipe for 2.8 v6 auto when i found a thread where someone hollowed out the existing pipe to essentially create the same thing. I thought good idea, how hard can it be, famous last words.

    I've hollowed out my pipe and refitted, a couple of days later EML came on, plugged in a code reader and gave P0136, bank 1 sensor 2.

    I read online that a 90 degree spacer is required, something about spacing the gasses from the sensor, so bought one, fitted and cleared the code, thought was all good, then couple of days later EML came back on, same error code. I then read that a remap is required to map out the EML error. I do plan a remap but not yet so i bought an original pre cat that hasn't been hollowed and fitted to the car, putting it back to as it was before i messed with it, thought all would be ok as the car was back as it was. But now the EML has come back on with the same code.

    Is there anything else that could bring up this error code? if it was the sensor would it not come on straight away rather than a few days after clearing it?
