Q:
I'd take a more scientific approach if I didnt have a spare car to steal parts off of.
Well, its fixed.
I was checking contingency between the sensor plugs and ecu plug to see if there was an open circut anywhere. Little background information that would be otherwise irrelivent... theres an axillary power cigarette lighter on the side of the console that was there when I got it, and few weeks ago I picked up an air ionizer air freshener thing (they work great by the way, have one in most of my cars) and pluged it in to the one someone has put at the side of the console because it was more out of the way than the one on the dash. It didnt click in my head, but thats when the problems started. Ok back to the main story, as I pull back the wire loom to find which wires I'm looking for, I notice that not 2" inside the look is a wire that has been spliced in with a crimp, obviously not factory, and it happend to be the I was looking for that leads up to the MAF, of course I imediatly know this isnt right, so I trace the spliced in wire... hey guess whats powering that lighter someone added in... Once removed, wire soldered back together, all works well.

LOL!!!
Now thats classic.

Did you check for vacuum leaks?
No power at low rpms and very lean could be a leak. Try spraying some carb cleaner / etc. around the intake system. (connectors, gaskets, etc.) You might find something

Problem was fixed like a week ago... as posted in this thread. Nice work on the reading job though.
A:
Weird. I wonder why they did that. When I wanted to add a custom accessory I wired it from the back of another cigarette plug. (It was for my radar detector, and I added a real stock-looking switch on the dash where the On-Star would have gone.)

I didn't notice the "Page 2" at the bottom.....
