Also we think we are 99.9% sure its the brake booster, when you push the pedal in you hear a HUGE sucking noise from the pedal and dad said that was the brake booster going out, so I order a new one today. Should be in tomorrow or day after. Also went ahead and got new spark plugs,wires, and a distributor cap. So she's more or less fully tuned up. Sounds great running. I'll get some more pics in tomorrow anyone wanna tell me how to make pics small?
Easy test. Disconnect the vacuum to the brakes plug it and try to stall it. If it still stalls that aint it. You may have to use two feet to get it to stop fast but you should be able to do it. Normally when a fuel injected motor get a vacuum leak it does not stall it revs. The O2 detects the increase in air and increases the fuel. It should also set the SES light since it would see a large input of air but no TPS input.

You bought a car and didn't check the oil? Its a good idea to check the oil daily when you first buy a car. You know your going to need to add oil to a $900 car the only question is when.

So far guys so good, thought I'd post an update been a day or two. Has a fuel leak of some sort thats flooding into the spark plugs a bit but dad said its no big deal we'll figure it out lol. And he is replacing the brake booster this weekend for me. Also we got it a full tune up, and going to get the manna fold welded this weekend has a hole in it. But other then those small issues she drives and rides like a buite!

fuel leak into the cyl is usually from a sticky/leaky injector.
