Post Check engine light

This has been going on for a while, it hasn't caused any issues with my truck so I really haven't been to worried about it. Plus with work by the time I get home everything is close and the weekends I am busy all day.

Taking off from a standstill doesn't cause the light to come on, neither does speeding up in reverse, or "revving" the engine in neutral. When going about 25mph and lower the light doesn't come on at all, but speeding up and pushing the gas down further my check engine light comes on...so did some thinking, digging, and asking questions and I have come down to one possibility (just my opinion) which is my O2 sensor needs to be replaced....i'm thinking that maybe I am not getting enough gas upfront and it pings on. Tested it here at the house and I didn't get any "it is this problem" sort of answer. Just would like to get a few opinions from you guys.

Need to make a trip to auto zone so they can test it so I can know for sure.

I would go to Advance Auto, or Auto Zone, and have them read it for you. Advance will read it for free.

I've had the same problem and that was what i got, the 02 sensors. I also have no cats in my exhaust, but it said the 02 sensors were goin off from too much fuel. I got the light from the same way your getting it.
