After I installed my headers my car would stall at idle a lot and I'd get no pull to 2200+ RPM's...and my air/fuel gauge wasn't working. And I could smell fuel in my exhaust. And my gas mileage blew.

And I had a code 13!

My O2 sensor was broke.


I dunno if that's your problem, but it was mine.

What else could it be?
I am having the same problem, I have replaced the O2 sensor already and the timing is 0*, stock.

My 02 sensor was $20, Bosch.
