Angry CEL Help needed

Ok guys, here is the scoop.
88 3.0 auto fresh TPS and HG a few months ago. Also replace all tranny solenoids and replaced a malfunctioning ECU.

Over the last few months the Check engine light periodically came on but when I shut truck off and restarted light would stay off sometimes for a few miles, sometimes for a day, sometimes 3-4 days. I finally pulled the codes and got a 22- Coolant temp sensor. I replaced that Saturday. Then Monday CEL light comes back on, I pull the code and it is 21-oxygen sensor. So I replace that last nite.
Today I drive about 20 miles and the truck seemed to be running smoother, then the damn Check light came on again!

So I pull the codes and I am getting 3 different codes:

25 - Air–Fuel Ratio Lean Malfunction
26 - Air–Fuel Ratio Rich Malfunction
51 - Switch Condition Signal


Is it logical to get a 25 and 26 at the same time? Seems odd to me.

Most importantly, what can I do next to fix this once and for all?


thanks

Mark
