Default Major Bog! Is the Fuel Line Clogged?

I've had a gas leak in a line near the tank on my CRX for quite awhile now... no biggie, the car ran lean, and the 02 code went off, but it drove alright. I had that fixed yesterday, and the car ran great and smelled MUCH better!

However, about 2 hours later, I noticed that the engine didn't want to rev past 5k... I thought it was odd, but probably just the heat. Then, the car's RPM's would bog past 4k, then 3500, and now, I can't rev past 2500!! I've replaced every gasket and wire on the car about 2 weeks ago, changed the oil and the coolant, so I know the engine's fine... but I'm getting the 02 code, and I have a nagging feeling that something got into my fuel lines and clogged them or the filter. Do these symptoms seem to fit??

Thanks!

I actually have my wrecked CRX sitting in the garage, so the lines and filter aren't going to be hard to get.... I'll try the cleaner though.

Ugh... It idles fine and revs freely. It hits a wall at higher RPMs...

Fuel problem...

-Replace fuel filter
-Could be faulty fuel pressure regulator...

Maybe an o2 sensor ??

I dunno.
