reads lean because the spark has been cut and the fuel is being pushed into the exhaust without having been burned. since there was no combustion event the oxygen in the cylinder is pushed out as well. since an oxygen sensor doesn't actually read fuel, but rather, oxygen, it see's this added oxygen and reads lean even though it is technically richer due to the unburnt fuel.
