ECU too sensitive? Never heard of this one. Do a Google search for 02 simulators. You can then replace both sensors with simulators; this will allow a stable input to the ECU and hopefully no trouble lights.
Would doing this cause a change in gas mileage? I would imagine that the info they are sending to the ECU is not true as to what is really flowing through the exhaust therefore causeing the ECU to not provide optimal timing and fuel for the amount of oxygen?
