Code P0171

[dbbd1]

On my way home today, it threw the p0171 code. Bank 1 too lean. It's dark out now, so I'll check into this tomorrow (vacuum leak, etc.) but is this the start of a stuck lifter? It only has about 12k miles so far.


Thanks

Got into it today, fixed it, took it for a test drive, good to go...

D@mn cats!

Alright, maybe I had a small part in the problem, but I'm still blaming the cats.


It wouldn't even stay running this morning. The problem? Air intake tube was loose and it separated from the air filter box. The MAF was still attached to the filter box. Dang thing didn't know that it was actually getting any air through the filter. I left the clamps loose when I replaced the air filter but the CATS probably knocked it loose when they crawled up in there. Another reason to try to break them of that bad habit.
