Im getting 2 codes after having a drivers side front axle shaft replaced...(snapped the center bearing bolts off) :)

-Insufficiant coolant temp for closed loop. I get this error but PocketLogger shows coolant temp around 210 degrees.
-Misfire detected. (always in a single cyl) and it really is misfiring.

My Disco light Air/Fuel meter is pinned off (no lights ever)
Pocket Logger shows 0.0V on the #1 O2 sensor (but no CEL)
Pocket Logger showed 0.0V on the #2 O2 sensor yesterday (but no CEL)

It never shows both at 0V.

I cant imagine how you could break this by working on an axle but is it possible that they shorted my #2 O2 sensor somehow? Its the only wire they should have been anywhere near.

My thought is that something is telling the ECU that the engine is running super lean and to compensate, the ECU is jamming in as much fuel as it can, flooding the cylinders and causing misfires.

Im bent that its screwed up now and I'm in Boston so its damn cold. I'd like to target my work as much as possible to avoid frostbite.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
