Any way I can take the Lambda components out of the loop? What would happen if I removed the frequency valve altogether? Does the fuel flow become too much for the regulator? If the fuel flow becomes too much, is there a way to freeze the valve at 60% open without using the Lambda unit?

I am ignorant on this, but it seems like there has to be a simple solution...ok a new regulator is simple, but that is $$$. Is there another way?

The Lambda connects in three locations at the engine:
1. frequency valve
2. Throttle valve
3. Passenger side cylinder bank

I assume #'s 2 and 3 are there to send readings back to the Lambda unit...right? Then the unit sends a signal to open or close the frequenct valve?

If that is the case, then I should be able to unplug #2 and #3 without effect to the engine. That leaves just the valve...can I just remove the whole valve from that fuel line?

Here is a picture to help out:
