If the cel is on something is wrong with the pcm, or maybe do did not switch over the prom from your old pcm?

What year did the chip come from? And are you sure you don't have a vacuum leak... This was an extremely common issue with the L27 Tuned port as they aged... As well how did you set the TPS as they are adjustable on the 91-92 models..
