I have a 1993 240sx se auto to 5 speed swap

Well my car bogs down, i mean way down at open throttle. It has no get up what so ever and no hole shot. I was told it has a vacuum leak but, i think it is fuel related. Could it be that my fuel pump is going out? Or is it my air fuel ratio is out of wack/my mas air flow sensor is bad?

Also my blue fuel light is on all the time, why is that? I can fill the tank up and it still stays on.

if you car starts and runs off starting fluid its your fuel pump crapping out on you;

AFR is related to bad o2 sensor

It starts, runs, and drives, but if you give it gas it takes forever to get to the redline.
