Federal California ECU Swap in 2000 limited ??
Long story. I swapped a California ECU into my Federal 2000 limited 4runner. The truck seems to run fine, but is throwing a code for a sensor (I think P1130). Is this because of the ECU or is the sensor bad? Anyone done this? Would this problem be fixed by placing a spacer on the rear sensor?

You are getting a P1130 (A/F Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1) because the ECU is seeing a standard O2 sensor and it wants a widerange air/fuel sensor. You are probably stuck in open loop, where the ECU ignores the front exhaust sensor and uses a stored map. MPG and performance will be degraded.
You can try wiring in an A/F sensor (plug for O2 sensor will not fit). In theory, it should work.
