How far do I have to drive after ECU reset?
Hi, my car failed air care because the ECU was picking up some codes (knock and o2 sensor). I didn't know at the time, but my CEL was out, otherwise I never would have tried to air care it. Anyways, i got the parts replaced and the ECU has been reset. How far should I drive so my car to see if my ECU picks up these codes again so I can get it air cared?

Car died the morning I was supposed to take it to Aircare. Jumped it (which clears ECU) and I drove up Cypress and back from Metrotownish, and it was fine for Aircare.
