It's your Oxygen Sensor, you should replace it. There are several on-line sources. It's fairly easy to get at and replace.

Michael,

I went through the same thing, however, mine was code 44 (the left side). I strongly suggest you replace the sensor. If you don't, you are putting your catalytic converter at risk (a much more expensive repair than replacing the sensor). You may also experience a substantial drop in fuel economy.

Try http://oxygensensors.com. I bought two from them at a very reasonable price.

Good luck!
