What type of cleaner? Was this running a bottle through the fuel tank or one of those run the engine on the injector cleaner kits? Usually I find that using fuel and oil additives including cleaners or even change of brands and types is part of a response to something going wrong or at least changing and then when the inevitable happens it will be the fault of that product.

Hi all. Has anyone found that running fuel injector cleaner has fouled their O2 sensor? After running a bottle through, my check engine light came on briefly, once. Trouble code recorded was for the O2 sensor. I know the code could've been thrown due to at least several reasons. I'll measure O2 voltage soon.
