    Did you try to put injector cleaner in the tank?
    I use - Interject injector cleaner.

    If the injector cleaner doesn't help had it properly diagnosed, changing sensors and quesing will only cost you more at the end.

    ECU will compensate. When you switch the engine "off" your possibly driping injectors will waste you fuel even when you don't drive. Air/fuel ratio alone means nothing if you don't check exhaust gases with 5 gas analyser. ECU light on the dashboard will not come "on" untill it is realy bad!

    So proper diagnosis before replacing any sensor will save you $$$ and time.
