rick, for the record:

after i got things cleaned up on bank 2, re. the O2 sensors and such, it started throwing identical codes for bank 1. i replaced the front sensor, reset the computer, drove it thru its drive cycles, and it passed emissions today with all monitors ready and no codes.

frankly, i am pretty stoked. the codes it was giving were failed catalytic converters. i can almost guarantee that the shop would have told me the cats were bad, replaced them, and i would have had the same problems, only to pay for new sensors anyway.
