I never woulda guessed
that my fuel filter was the cause of all my problems...
my car used to idle wierd, flash the CEL... checked codes, checked sensors, cleaned every sensor....
low an behold I decide to replace the fuel filter.... driven it 50 miles since that and an oil change so I could replace a leaky oil drainplug seal...
who ever said it was night and day was right....
car runs hella alot smoother now

RE: I never woulda guessed
yah, you'd be amazed what kind of problems can be created with insufficient fuel flow.
you might consider running half a can of seafoam through an intake vacuum source, cleanup some of the carbon deposits you no doubt left behind from running lean like that.

thanks for the tip, I'll have to go pick some up tomorrow on my way home from work
