New Guy, code 25 help.
Hey guys, I know there are a bunch of threads on code 25, I've searched for th past two days. I just haven't quit found what I need so I decided to start my first thread. Last weekend I got a new to me 92 4x4 with the 3vze, and the check engine lights been on since then. It's showing code 25 lean. I tested the output of the o2 sensor and it seems to fluctuate between 0.1 and 0.2 volts at around 1500 rpms. But if I give it gas real quick it will read between 1.5 and 2 volts for a second. Does this mean I need an 02 sensor?

Good job checking the O2 sensor output first! It sounds like it may be working correctly; it is indicating a lean condition, and the ECM throws the correct code.
At 20 years, the O2 sensor could be iffy; they are easy to replace but not particularly cheap. But I would first run through the diagnostics given in the manual. AND I would check for a vacuum leak; extra air is sucked in after the VAF, leaning out the mixture beyond what the ECM can compensate for.
Good luck!
