Have been reading that many people corrected their P0171, P0300 and P0131 codes by replacing the intakes gaskets. These have TSB's even and is a know issue. Has anyone on here had to do this to correct these codes?

So how did you correct the problem that caused the codes?

Replaced the 02 sensor bank 1 sensor 1, cleaned MAF sensor, replaced plugs and wires and added ACDelco fuel treatment. After I was done, I cleared the codes and drove it around for awhile. It has been 8 days with no codes or bad idle...
