O2 levels/Rough Idle

So heres the story,
I replaced ,the IAC, IAT, TPS, and Rear O2 sensor with an O2 Sim. My car pretty much threw codes for all of em. I guess they went bad?

Still have a bad idle/bad mileage. What the HELL is wrong with this car. I've been scanning with an Autotap. My 02 Levels dont seem right. The front reads, high 600ish-800ish. and the rear reads like 40ish- to maybe 100ish.
Any ideas anyone? Is the 02 Sim I bought from ZZP bad? Well, im about spent on this, someone shoot me some ideas. What are correct 02 levels?
Thanks,

Greg

Ok well i scanned the car today. The Front bank 02 Sensor 1 is all over the place but i guess thats correct. I have a rear sim in for 02 Bank Sensor 2 so i guess its reading correctly. So i checked for Knock as well. At half Throttle, It read 10* of KNOCK! yikes. Then i checked the Idle Air Control Position, an its below 50 around 37-40ish Counts at idle. So i dont think thats good. Anyone make anything of this?

Any ideas? Running Lean?

HELP!!

Whep thanks,

I'm startin to think its a vac leak. But here is something else i have noticed. I wish i knew how to post pics on here but im gonna post some up soon on my photo bucket site. So heres what i have noticed. the cars throttle body isnt completed flush up against the intake. theres like a 1/8thin gap on each side, kinda like the upper pleumen is warped. I just had the lower gaskets replaced an all that. so.... we will see.
also just went over all vac areas, still here a slight hiss. Not sure if it just the car or a vac leak. I need to get some die an try that. Anyone know where u can get die?

Thanks

Greg

Greg, ignore the rear O2 values, they're only for throwing codes for emmissions purposes only.

So you have access to a scanner so you could post up a scan of what's going on? You say that your car threw codes for all of the above listed sensors?? At the same time? Do you have the codes now?

Well, with the codes it sounds like it might be something electrical if you got them all at the same time. However in general your idle and milage issue i'd have someone comb the car for a vacume leak.

Let us know any findings.
