I've been getting a code26 from my car. That's the rich air/fuel mixture code. I know, the 5sfe runs rich anyway, but not enough to throw a code. I know my EGR is needed cleaned. I also know that I welded close to my O2 sensor not too long ago. To stop the CEL, I unplug the O2 sensor and reset the ECU. This works, but I know it's not right. I was thinking it was either the O2 or the EGR, but when I look in the Haynes manual, it's saying: injector circuit, injector, air flow meter, cold start injector, or ECM. Anyone have any advice for me?

This is why Haynes is junk IMO.

Start with your O2 sensor since you were messing around it.
Also check your CSI, CSI time switch, EFI water temp sender and MAP sensor.

There is a list of things it could be, but those are the most likely.
