well my H2 has just started throwing this code.
when i am at WOT, it does surge or hesatate, the tach does go up and down.
i do have a super charger on it and a borla exhaust.
anyone else have this problem.
oh... i have been trying diffrent brands of gas since this started to see if i was getting some bad gas.

Likely have A restricted cat converter. Check backpressure of both if either is over 1 psi of backpressure that will cause random missfires on that bank.

HUMTECH is right (as usual!). I had the same thing happen last week. I got the same code and have been getting a code for a bad passenger side converter too. It happened when going up a steep incline and punching it hard and the check engine light kept blinking on and off. I downloaded (if I remember correctly) code P101. I have a supercharger also.

i forgot to mention that i had high flow cats installed. there is allmost nothing in there and cant see how it would make any back pressure but i will check it

Where in the world did you find hi-flow cats for the H2?

what code # is it throwing ? on a side note you could have gotten the Random tecnoligy cat to fit in the H2 without any problem ,and I hear they claim to be the freest flowing.

Ummm well the stock converters when working properly have less than 1psi backpressure, hard to get much flow increase over that.

At first I got the po420, I replaced the driver side cat and then got the po430 and replaced the passenger side. No codes since.

have you checked to see if the headers havent burned the plug wires? old cheap skates way to check plug wires . get a spray bottle and spay the plug wires a night and start the truck if you see sparks the wires are shot . a DVOM will also work no water needed.
