So, parts replacement DID fix the problem? Roadtest results and how long or far on the roadtest?

@OR VietVet So for reference, prior to replacing I cleared the code several times and would get the code again within driving 2-5 miles after my baby was warmed up. I would get two codes, both P0178, one actual code and then the pending. After the change, I still smell like gasoline, no codes after 5+ miles.

Drive it. Unless you have a fuel leak from you messing up the install. You are still smelling the fuel spill.
