Several HEGO Codes... New Sensor installed

So, I'm getting codes 171, 172, 173, and 181... AND I replaced the sensor a month ago. CE light is intermittent as well.

Could these be related to a faulty throttle position sensor, or straight up VAC leak? I'm going to test TPS voltage this weekend to make sure I'm getting good resolution and proper voltages.

Thoughts?

Best best is to stick to your original thread with the results of a new O2 sensor: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...expertise.html

Others have already suggested items to look at.
