Yes, remove your o2 sensor, (carefully, don't want to mess up the threads), and get some MID-coarseness (it's what I used, worked so far), pack about a quarter sized amount in, you don't want to completely block it, but enough so you can't really see through, and push it down almost all the way in so you can put the o2 sensor back in without having them touching.

Done deal, Chris, thank you soo much man, will that reset the SES/CEL? Do I still need to go to the dealer to have it reset?

Most car parts stores will have a code reader and will read them for free, and can also delete them. Or if you have to get your emissions inspected in MD/VA, you can go to an emissions shop and they can check/clear it.

The last time mine came on, I restarted the car and the CEL was there. Drove it home and went to bed. Got up next morning and the CEL was gone. It might take a few cranks to clear it after the code has been removed.
