Now it might be a little early to tell if all the problems are gone but before I had a few o2 heating codes stored at star up. The rich fuel smell is also gone.

Thank you Jared and Paul for the help!

What do you think of the injection cleaning kits (air operated, runs off Inject-R-Kleen)? My friend has one and says it works wonders but I am a little hesitant to try it.
Zak,

You're welcome -- glad to hear it's fixed. As far as cleaning injectors, the best way is to remove them and send them to a specialized cleaning service (approx $100). If you decide to do this, bag each injector separately and label which cylinder they're from. There are several cleaning systems that run off of shop air and I haven't heard any complaints about them. They basically work the same -- make sure you follow the instructions (e.g., disable the fuel pump, seal off the fuel lines, etc.).

Regards,
paul...
