Some of you mihgt remember teh previous post about my '93 900s convt. that wouldnt run. well we got it running after 4 sets of sparkplugs, and various other things. its now running the NGK iridium plugs. it'll start up just fine, but the starts running rough. we adjusted the idle upto about 1k rpm, and it seems to run pretty smooth there. the problem is when you drive it. it has lost all its pep, refuses to go above 3.5k rpm when you give it anymore than a little gas. you need to baby it to get above 55-60 mph, and it stumbles and wont rev when you get into the throttle.
all the sensors check out fine, although the O2 sensor reading fluctuates quite abit. the only codes that keep coming up are AMM, TPS, and incorrect mixture.
the amm is working properly, sop i dont know why it comes up. have tested it, and also removed the sensor plug, and it runs worse unplugged.

like i said, all the sensors are working, and within specified voltage output, except O2.

Has anyone had the same problem, or have any suggestions. its been a month since it started acting up, and i really want to get it straightened around.
