Which year model Z do you have? You could possibly use non-foulers if you don't have the 2007 model.

If you have an 07, then all I can tell you is to go to autozone to have them clear it out for you. But it will come back again. There is also a device you can use to clear the code yourself, I forget what it's called. But even using that, the code will reappear.

I'm waiting for a fix for the 07's.

disconnect the battery and go to sleep. Reconnect in the morning. That is what I was told to do and it worked. Mine came on after installing turbonetics and seemed to be a common issue. Resolved now

A diagnostic code scanner can be used. It will tell you the code and what it means; you can also erase the CEL however as stated above it will reappear if the root cause is not dealt with. They run around $150 for a decent one.

You need Spark Plug Non-faulers. Two for each side. Then drill two of them with a 1/2 drill bit. Place your O2 senso in it and then screw it to the tesp pipe. Reset engine light and you are done. Do a search for a DYI, I know is on the site somewhere.

All you need to do it unplug the (-) from the battery and leave it overnite like it was explained here. That is all.
