dying when warmed up
so this past weekend, through the advise of you guys, took off my ACV and blocked it off. This was because my air pump bracket broke off years ago. it was running fine till this morning on my way to work. it started bucking on me during decel. then it started doing it while my foot was on the gas @ around 1000rpm to 1500rpm. above that it didn't do it. then it started dying on me everytime i would push the clutch in when coming to a stop. on my way home from work it was fine till it was warmed up. it started doing the same thing to me.
when i was working on it this weekend i fixed one of my port actuators(closer to the front) witch was stuck. during that process i broke the banjo bolt that bolts the air pipe to the LIM for the actuators(closer to the front). Of FU*&^NG course!!! so i stuck the the head of it back in place and JB welded it on. i aslo noticed that the pipe coming from my exaust that goes to that whole setup was cracked. so i JB welded that to. Sunday after everything was dry(JB weld and gasket sealant)i cranked it up. it drove fine but when i looked under the hood i notice that neither one of the actuators were working now. one of them were before. i figured i probly blocked the air coming through for the acxtuators with the JB weld. would this be the cause of my problems or is it something completly different?

so this morning it acted the same as it was. when i was leaving work it started doing it right of the bat but only worse. it wouldn't drive without bucking really bad. so i pulled over about three blocks from work.
i forgot to mention that my temp guage goes straight to hot when i start it. But it hasn't worked in years. it just started doing that monday afternoon.
when i pulled over because of the temp guage i took out the thermostat and put it back together. it started up fine. so i left to head home and it was driving fine. i thought i had fixed the prob somehow. i was wrong. it started dooing it again. could my water pump be bad? did i screw my engine? A friend of mine said maybe the O2 sensor. Please help!!

i didnt have much of a choice. the head snapped off with the bolt still in the hole. so i used JB weld to hold the head of that bolt in place. i didnt put any inside the banjo bolt just around the head to seal it up and keep it on there
