Follow up,
Whay I di was disconnect the battery for 30 min plus. I also tapped on the O2 sensor and surrounding exhaust pipe to possiblt rid any particles that may have stuck. If any.
The CEL has gone off and so far (10 miles) has stayed off.
However, if a fault exists, I can expect it to go on again after 30-60 miles.
I'll follow up.
Thanks for the DIY meter link and opinions !!
