Running a power fc I don't use an o2 sensor(Or it isn't functioning properly). What will happen to my motor in terms on how it runs?

just get it tuned most tuners turn o2 feedback off in the power fc anyway as it takes an engineer to get functioning properly. A proper tune cruising in vac will net you just as good MPG's as the factory ECU with o2 feedback control.

^werd. I think a decent tuner should be able to get you running the right afr's with or without the o2 sensor.

I also agree. Any decent tuner should be able to tune the engine to get good gas mileage and good AFR's are part throttle with out closed loop.
