Default truck is smoking when accelerating and rpm gauge jumps around.

I have a 90 model 350 in my 95 z71 it is smoking when i accelerate hard and sometimes while im driving the motor starts jumping and the rpm gauge bounces all over. Recently changed the 02 sensor on the pass side cant find a plug for the 02 sensor on the driverside.

Well smoke will likely come out
You are burning more fuel.
More fuel than air (rich) black smoke
More air than fuel (lean) white smoke

When the Rachel bounces, how drastically?
Like 100 rpm's? Or like a few thousand rpm's?
