Chevy 454 TBI P-30 ?s

1. I have a 1994 Fleetwood Southwind Storm (28ft) and would like to know how many O2 sensors there are? I'm only seeing (1) underneath. This is a TBI 454 P-30

2. Also would like to know if it's equipped with a MAF sensor as well.

3. Anyone know of an internet site that points out all the locations of such devices?

Coming back from Cultus lake and while waiting at the border (Abottsford) I glanced down and noticed the 'Engine' light was on. First I've seen it come on during the trip. Engine was running fine otherwise. I shutdown the engine waiting for the line to move and upon starting light was out. Light did not come on for remainder of trip home (Renton, WA.). I'm leaning at an O2 sensor but would like to know how many does the P-30 chassis have. I only see (1) underneath. Mileage was just over 8mpg (US).

I had a 95 Challenger with the tbi injected 454, it only had one 02 sensor. Don't know if it had a MAF sensor or not. Only problem I had with mine was wires, cap, and rotor. Always got between 8 and 10 mpg pulling a 18 ft steel trailer with a race car and a golf car. Lot better mileage than my Dolphin.

I did crawl underneath today and confirmed it has only (1) O2 sensor. Followed the exhaust all the way up to exhaust manifold/block. The 1 sensor is right after the 'Y' and before the muffler & cat. Going to put a new one in.

Replaced the Spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor roughly 6-7K ago (late 2014) and have heat shield covers for all wires. Using the NAPA premium wires and AC Delco cap & rotor.

If you can find the OBD-I port (GM called it an ALDL*), you can jumper pins and pull the code thrown by the computer. It will be a series of flashes, and all OBD-I codes are two-digits.

Update:

Went ahead and replaced MAP sensor, TPS sensor, O2 sensor (1), PCV valve, new radiator cap. Runs great. Didn't bother checking for code given it's not occurred since then. Those CEL lights are almost exclusively related to O2 sensor issues more often than not.

The MAP sensor controls overall AFR for the TBI and the O2 sensors only involvement is trim for fuel AFR if (big if) the MAP throws error. Not likely going to happen given it is new now as well.
