I'd check your vac lines, and check for any vac leaks. Running no O2 sensor will make your car run rich.

First things first, take a deep breath and relax, second: what happened in the first place? You playing around under the hood not really sure what you were doing, or did you have another problem?

Yea, i don't understand your question. Reread your sentences, they don't make much sense, I'm not trying to be harsh.

An O2 sensor is only around $30 - $35.

On www.fc3s.org there is a copy of the factory service manual. Very helpfull. I used it to double check all of my vac line routes on my AE.

No one stopped to ask why there is no O2 sensor on it? So? Why is there no 02 sensor on it?
