Default I need help

ok i havent figured out how to use the site yet buy i am haveing a problem with my 95 1500 the problem started out that my truck would not get over 55 and had no power and when i gave it more gas it the speed would drop. then it went to it would not get over 35 and if i let off the gas it would die and if i gave it gas it would stumble. so i figured it was the cat and i just bilt a new exaust from scratch i didnt put a new cat in i just left it off and put a muffler on so it started running ok a few hours but i can smell gas like the engine is running ritch and it is starting to die at low rpm now i left the o2 sensor off could that be my problem? and could it have been bad in the first place? i know now i have the 51 code?

Got a new NTK O2 sensor to install since my pre-cat sensor was toast and hadn't had a chance to replace it since plenum repair...did find out my truck has a wiring harness from a 2000 model in it...more on that later.

I put in a new Wix air filter and Standard Motor products camshaft sensor/distributor pick up coil. The ladder is up there with the crank sensor on the "annoying sensor's to replace" list. Hopefully this cures the long cranking start-up issue. So far so good...

Here's a picture of the old one. It was pretty dirty.

Good stuff! Curious about why you are putting new parts into those axles when you are planning for 'mogs later this year?
