did you try cleaning the 02 sensor at all. Check the rear 02 sensor 2 mine gave me some weird tranny symptoms with surging and such.

Ok well yesterday I took the truck for a ride after pulling the fuel rail off and cleaning the injectors, hop in starts right up and still drives the same. So I get a call from my ex fiancee and she asked me to come get my stuff out by friday so I decide ill do it and decided ill just limp the truck over there. So half way there BAM check engine light comes on ( Im thinking THANK GOD now I have somewhere to start at) so then I also notice that the truck is running 100 times better I can stomp on the gas and it will take off now. So I get home and scan it and I get a p0132 1/1 O2 sensor shorted HI.. Im afraid if I fix it ill have the same problem but the sensor is plugged in maybe it came unplugged but why would it say shorted HI?

Start at the O2 sensor, and follow the harness back. Look for any damage to the wires, especially where is passes thru bulkheads.
