AFR is still being a bit screwy on me, and it miss fires if i run anything richer than 13:1 under WOT. Also goes though a weird phase like it was before all these problems occured, where i get the car cruising at 55mph and it runs around 15:1 and drives just fine. After about 61 seconds, like clockwork, it goes from 15:1 down to about 11:1 or 10:1. Going to put the logger on it later tomorrow and see what the problem is, and if it's showing up there. If not.... back to the drawing boards. Before when i tried pulling the code, it just told me the O2 sensor was bad when the check engine light came on.

How old are your coils and ignition transistor?

Having the car go rich would indicate a loss of spark or surplus of fuel all of a sudden.
