Hopefully that O2 sensor is the real issue.
What's your typical driving like (city/hwy/length/speed)?

Haha thanks, the parking brake is down, and the anchor will i will take off tonight. I thought it added HP?
My typical driving involves taking my wife to work, an 18 mile round trip highway. But my work is close to my house 2.1 miles one way city driving, then picking my wife up from her work another 18 mile round trip.
So 40ish miles per day, mostly highway. On the highway my average speed is 75 give or take a bit.
I can smell that it is burning rich, and this weekend I plan on changing the O2 sensors and a more thorough cleaning of the TB and IM. The previous owner put a catback exhaust on it, but nothing else.
