Why did you "have" to replace all the sensors?

Maybe on a 96 but on my 1995, 1988 and 1986 I have not replaced any sensors yet. I did have to replace the TFI Module on the 88 but that has been it. I also replaced two of the engines, one in the 86 and one in the 88 but no sensors.

What code was found when scanned. O2's maybe ,but I doubt it needed all at once unless the check engine was left on forever.

Does the exhaust manifold leak also? If so I would say yes.
