hi michael, and welcome,
any chance your choke is going off too early ? i cant remember if they are adjustable.
sounds like your'e getting the right mixture, but for a short period, hence lower gear and revving to warm the engine.
Air filter, take it out, see if it's any different (straws)
Ive only changed about a dozen 02 sensors, not a problem.
