Then why isn't your tuner properly diagnosing your high and low voltage codes for your TPS? Doesn't seem like you got a proper diagnosis at all. O2s have nothing to do with that. Replies are based on what you post, not reading your mind.

if you have not done so already put a gauge on the fuel rail and tape it to the windshield so a passenger can watch for fuel drop under load

this has ended up being the problem in several I've seen...and they all had "brand new" pumps, injectors, lines, etc

If it won't go into open loop at wot and is trimming fuel at wot you will be targeting 14.7 and that will be why you are lean. See if he can set the closed loop temp to max so it never goes into closed loop if that fixes the issue you can rule out some things.

Sounds like you have a whole lot of physical problems and tune problems.

Can you post some log files.

If PE fueling is set to stoich, then the PCM may be able maintain closed loop (since commanded fueling is not deviating from stoich)... you should not run PE set at stoich.

How do you know that it's stuck in CL...?

There is also the possibilty that your tune is set to do OL STFT trimming (on stoich cells in the OLFA table) which also means PE is set to stoich (the PCM selects the richer of the enabled tables, i.e. OLFA or PE in OL).

So as you can see, the tune has some problems...

And as said above, you have to get the TPS and other physical problems diagnosed (before doing anything in the tune)...

(the GM Service Manual has diagnstic charts to help you pinpoint the cause of each physical problem).

Sensor overheat can be a problem if it's too close-in
(especially bad, is before the turbine housing). That
puts the wideband controller out to lunch.

Misfiring, even one unbalanced injector at WOT can
really spoof sensor readings even if the controller is
working right.
