ok i got another problem here in the world of tpi.

I'm leaning towards the o2 sensor.

running hot
exhaust smells like gas
bogging down when given gas.

also this next one probable belong in the electrical part but if you got ideas let me know

I push the rear defroster and the engine wants to die out. I guessing there is a short. any ideas if there is a common spot as to where this issue might be?

clean all the gorunds you can find on the alternator/battery harnesses, and the terminals in the couplers. it just may not be getting all the power it should. i noticed that my headlights would dim at idle and doing this helped.
