i have an autometer narrow band air fuel gauge and it shows my car is running lean

how will the motor run if its running lean will the car be sluggish and rev out and not shift on the automatic trans ?

You should feel a slight loss of power when getting on it at high RPM's. Mine was running really lean at one point because of my tune..from what I have been told, it's not good to take your car up to high RPM's if it's running lean. I would be careful.

Take what that gage is telling you with a grain of salt. It is really just a light show, and will tell you if there is a bad O2 sensor. If you want to know how lean or rich you are, use a wideband.
