    I voted for the " YOU are Lost " selection .
    Give us some better information .
    Year of truck , model , 4x4 ? or 2 wheel drive , motor size ? auto or manual transmission ?
    I am assuming you had a computer scan performed and this is a code thats popping up
    Let us know if our assumptions are correct

    I'm guessing you're looking for the nissan message board? in that case, you're lost.

    I know dick about codes and stuff but i entered that code into the universal code list generator and definition database that covers any code found in any car in the world. It's called google.

    Well that's what I normal do is google. When type in p2a00 code on google it say A/F sensor bank#1 sensor#1. By the way I have 2004 Toyota Tacoma create cab 6 cylinder 4x4 auto 111700 miles. Didn't put in the sensor but did try that spacer trick I read about also just did plugs(ngk) n wires. Fail inspection n engine light still on. Almost forgot during this process the truck has a surge. When driving along its fast then slow fast then slow. I thought from rebooting the computer cause it to run like that but it still doin it. Can a guy get some help?

    you can try and run some cataclean through your system and maybe do the seafoam cleaning through the intake. see if that helps.
