      IIRC sender = ECU and sensor = gauge

      okay, so from what have gathered, the one I want is the two pin sensor and not the single pin sensor.
      Correct?

          So I put in the sensor and it hasn't changed a damn thing.
          Starts a little hard, runs fine when cold.
          Pulls hard with no problems till it warms to temp. Then starts with the stuttering and lurching.
          Ugh.
          On to the next thing...

              I just replaced my less than one month old Facet brand CPS with an OEM one and all my issues were solved.
              So, like I'm sure the gentleman above is getting at.. OEM or nothing as far as CPS goes.

                      Haha. No.

                      Way too broke for that. Plus, I have put too much onto this heap to give up now.

                        Symptoms point to a vacuum leak or an AFM issue. Does your MPG needle wig out or CEL illuminate momentarily during the stuttering? I'd also inspect your vibration damper.

                          Yeah, I am grabbing plug wires and a coil just to be sure and a smoke test is in the future as well.
                          I can't tell if the gauges wig out or not because of the #10 fuse issue.
                          Once I fix that I will let you know about the cel.
                          What points you towards the vibration damper?

                              Have you done a compression test with the engine hot?

                              We had a pro3 car with a cracked head, ran great cold... it was mixing coolant but If you had a bad crack that wasn't around a coolant passage it could start making shit go bonkers.

                              It is hard to try and diagnosis shit on R3V you have a list of what you have done, but no way for us to know you didn't screw up something obvious as you have gone.

                                hay did you ever get it figured out? its a air leak some were, if not my opinion to check is the afm for leaks actually take it out and do a really good check for pin size holes in the metal part under the afm (its caulked with clear caulking), and the inside of the opening for leaks, the next would be the brake boost lines were they connect to throttle body(both sides of throttle body), shouldn't have to say it but rubber elbow, and the evap hose under the throttle body, also worth checking is the fuel injector seals for leaking, also just to make sure you don't have a leaking head gasket check oil for coolant or a compression test.
