I need a little help with my :dsm: 1995 Eclipse GST. I was driving today and out of no where it backfired at 4500 and produced a tint of blue in the exhaust fumes. So I took it easy on the way home and once I got home I started to try find out what was going on with it and I figured out that it back fires only at 4500 RPM. 4500RPM is all it would rev up to, it would not go any higher or it would back fire. So I called my friend over with his OBD-II diagnostics toll and it came up with five errors (listed below).

#1 P0125 Exsesssive time to enter closed loop fuel control
#2 P0136 O2 sensor circut malfuntion
#3 P0141 O2 Sensor heater malfuntion
#4 P0335 CKP sensor circut malfuntion
#5 P1400 manifold differintial pressure sensor malfuntion


I have no clue what is going on. I need some help quick it is my only transportation to school. Also, I might add, that when my key was in the on position (with out my engine on) the ignition coil was ticking. Some help would be GREATLY Appreciated.

Also is it ok for me to drive, i need to know please!!

Thanks Nick

Today i ordered an O2 sensor and hopefully it will cure my problems that im having. If it is not it then i have no clue what to do next. Please post any other things that could be causeing this. I really dont know what it going on.

Thanks Nick
 
I still need help I ordered an O2 sensor but the stupid people at the local auto parts store ordered the wrong one. They said it should be here in two days. Now all the sudden it started to over heat and I saw that my radiator fan was not running. So I have to replace I believe is the coolant temperature switch. So I still need help to find out what is wrong with my backfire problem if the O2 sensor does not work. Please help me I really need the help, am desperate.

Thanks Nick
 
All right thanks for the hint. ill see what the O2 sensor will do when i get it. thanks for the help though.

Thanks Nick
 
i've been getting the same codes. o2 sensor malfunction and o2 sensor heater circuit malfunction. please let me know if the new o2's take care of it.
 
The stupid people at the local auto parts store told me the wrong day they were getting it in. they said it should be here today. So it was5 days later than they said!!! I sould get it in tonight ill post an update when i get it.

Ya they are idots. I whent up there to get it and they were waiting for me to come in and the guy handed me the part and told me to check it to see it was the right part. It was the right one so i put it back on the table and the guy pick it up and said "Your good to go" and i walked out saying thank you with the FREE O2 sensor that i ordered. The stupid guy forgot to ring me up hahaha. I got the O2 sensor but i have to put it in tonight. So ill post back tonight to see whats happning.
