Sounds lean maybe. Is it bad when cold, or only when warmed up? If the latter, that is a big clue, and makes things much easier, as it means the problem is only in closed loop, when the O2 sensors are used to set fueling. In that case, check 02 sensors first.
If the former, first make sure there are no vacuum leaks. Then I'd look at fuel pressure, then ignition timing. Make sure the injector and plug wires are where they should be, things like that.
I don't like the fact that he pulled your check engine light. But you can still have codes read.
