Car was not running lean before today, I have DSMLink V3 but I got a code today on the way home for a bad O2 sensor. I know for sure the car is running lean because it feels horrible and my wide band is reading (---) then to normal when I tap the gas but before it started running like garbage it just kind of felt like there was not enough fuel, I figured it was just because I was low on fuel and it was sucking fumes because my gas light was on and it was close but I was on my way to the gas station. I got a check engine light for the stock O2 sensor being bad but I was wondering if that could cause the car to run lean? Also, my car won't go past -1 vacuum and I can feel it building the pressure but its kind of like its not dispersing it. I have already eliminated it being the following things:
MBC
Exhaust
Turbo (The waste gate flapper is not cracked or broken and functions well, I have tried switching out the waste gate itself and still nothing. I'm not positive that waste gate is good either though).
and I'm getting -21 vacuum at idle so I'm not sure what else to do.
Anything else you guys think it could be? I'm pretty much at a loss here
