well...i reset the computer. i unhooked it for 12 hours. i've driven it about 100 miles and let me tell you what. its never ran this good. it got back loads of power. acelerator response dramatically improved. now i need to check the gas mileage. it should have definatly gone up

well it was running extremely rich before i unhooked the battery even after about 1000 miles so i knew something was wrong. my gas mileage on back roads and highway mixed was only 19.5. when i reset it i knew it reset because it ran really rough and was sputtering for about 10 miles. thats a sign its re-learning the sensors. then it smoothed out and got back tons of power. about 20 hp or so
