      So you have no O2 sensor and you wonder why it runs bad? If you have a late model car i.e. a 173 dme it adapts the closed loop fuel map based on the o2 sensor readings when it is in open loop mode so no o2 sensor means it will run like shit. Change that and get rid of vac leaks.

                check for vaccum leaks then test the afm with a ohm meter. it should start out about 3.25 and as you SLOWLY open the barn door should raise over 4.5
