ok first of all.... DO NOT F WITH YOUR A/F IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT ITS AT NOW!!!
good God who thought that was a good idea?
i'm not trying to be a dick man but say you were already lean.... then you dialed it back EVEN more!
set it back to where it was, redyno it when you can get A/F and more people might be able to help...
also, if you logged your run, how much KR were you seeing?

be careful playing with the air/fuel ratio. a tune can be done w/out an O2 sensor(what do you think old school hotrodders did), but don't rush it, IMO. if you can wait for the shop to fix their 02 sensor, just wait.
