The only other maintenance I am doing is fluids/thermostat (runs too cool).....with the electronics taken out of the loop it runs fine, and you can't even get it to stall if you try. (even when cold, bumping the throttle, putting a big load on it (electrical, A/C, ect...) it still won't stall)

I'll keep checking sensors....I'm guessing the air intake one is bad...its not in very good shape physically....however the engine temp sensor is brand new. What other sensors should I check? Or, what others are there that could cause that problem? The air intake sensor is cheap, I'll pick one up sometime in the future and try that....perhaps the computer itself has issues....I'll figure it out eventually....
