Greetings!
My computer is turning my car into a granny wagon. I have noticed that everytime I do some work to my car, I usually disconnect the battery and when I test drive it for the first time, it runs like a scalded dog for maybe one or two separate trips. After that, the acceleration is reduced MAJORLY. The car runs smoothly but it just doesn't "get on it", if you dig what I'm saying. I have read that the computer goes through a learning period after it has been reset but somehow it thinks I'm a little old lady or something. I'm sure it is trying to conserve gas and emissions but frankly, I'd rather fill up more often in order to have that "seat of your pants" acceleration. Where do I go from here? BTW, this is an 89 2.8L V6 with MPFI and dual snorkel intake. Everything is stock.

EDIT: I do get a Code 44 periodically, so I'm going to replace the O2 sensor and see if that helps at all.
