i have an 88 firebird, with the 2.8l engine in it, and i am totally stumped as to what is going on, please help me figure this one out.

I originally had a code 45, oxygen sensor rich. i went home last night changed out the oxygen sensor, and i am still having the same problem, only this time there is no code to go along with it. when i go up a hill it seems like the engine is running w.o.t., but i am not moving anywhere fast. it will run like this and i will only be doing 3000 rpm. i know it is not the clutch, i just had it replaced a few months ago. any clue what this might be? i have changed the oxygen censor, and i have also changed the fuel filter. someone told me that it could even possibly be just a bad tank of gas. well any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

give more details, and what does WOT mean

 

I'm not sure what you mean by this either... if you said the RPM's were up at 6000 it would make more sense... what exactly happens?

Oh & WOT = Wide Open Throttle... I prefer "running WFO" but that'd get censored!
