Desperate need of help please
I have a 03 trailblazer 4.2. I have recently tuned it up with all new filters, cleaned the tb and disconnected the batt. My problem is i am burning the mess out of gas. I noticed on my scanner that the calc load is 100% all the time unless you completely let off the gas then it goes to 30-35%. I noticed also that the upstream o2 sensor readings are so fast i hardly have time to read them. It has 145,000 miles on it. I am lost with this and do not know what to check. If anyone can please help me i would be greatly appreciated.

Are you familer with what the short term fuel trim and long term should be on mine? Also what about the fuel trim? My fuel trim is at 21 ideling and 4-6 when you give it a lil gas. My stft is pos 1- neg9 % - 117-127 and my ltft is neg 4% - 123 ok when i drive for 5 min or so and stop and put it in park the stft is at neg 20% - 103 and the long is neg 5% - 121 . I do not really know much about that yet. Do you know if all this is ok? It also is in closed loop.. Thanks for helping
