I just brought a 2003 Suburban LT, and I have a rough idle. I changed the spark plugs and wire, and then I got these two codes. I am glad I watched your vid, now I can do a process of elimination. I do not go to mechanics anymore, because you can not tell if they are trust worthy or not. I have learned how to fix on my own cars from youtube. This vid is the most imformative and simpliest vid that I have ever ran across on youtube. Thank you very much for the information sir.

Outstanding video! I still haven't figured out my particular P0171 problem (already cleaned the MAF which didn't appear to have any build up, replaced the fuel filter, had replaced the fuel pump just a few months ago for an unrelated issue, and actually have a new EGR valve and EGR tube and DPFE sensor from unrelated issues as well). I'm guessing at this point a vacuum leak or O2 sensor. My vehicle is a 2000 Ranger with a 2.5L. The fuel filter actually burned up due to an improper install and the DPFE sensor had a faulty wiring harness (loose wire) and that code is now clear, and I had the P0171 previously, which is why I believe those to be unrelated issues. Oddly though, sometimes the P0171 will come on in just a few miles after a reset yet one time it took well over a week and 700 miles. Anyway I really appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge in such a professional manner!

Very clear and easy to understand, thanks man. I’ve got a 2002 GMC 5.3 L suburban. The fuel pump wasn’t providing enough pressure (10lbs max). It would fire up and then shut off immediately (no codes or check engine light were on) So, I replaced The fuel pump and filter(had already changed 30-40k ago), and then it ran. 👍🏼 . Shortly after it threw codes po171 & po174 -lean on Bank 1& on bank 2. Seems to run fine except at idle (5-6 hundred rpm), It’s a bit rougher than it was or should be . So I just smoke test, covered up the intake manifold (with rubber glove :-) and blew smoke into the brake booster hose. The only place smoke escaped , was from the oil fill tube / hole in valve cover after I removed the oil fill tube to be sure. I also replace the PCV valve after that because I had a new one, and now it’s only thrown code po171 bank 1 lean???? The old PCV valve didn’t seem as though it had been able to close all the way, Afterwards, it only showed code po171 lean on bank one. ??? I would just tell you? And why would the smoke come out of my valve cover with your filler tube is? Thanks for any help .

You're absolutely correct about the Toyota MAFs. I was getting both codes on my 2002 Lexus. I swapped out the MAF, and everything is good. Good content. Keep up the great work.
@ThePeoplesGarage11 жыл бұрын
You might not notice the idle rough, but still spray around the intake with brake cleaner and see if the idle changes. Also cleaning the MAF sensor might not do any good if its electrically faulty, it might need replaced. Those are really the only 2 things that are even remotely common on your truck to cause both of those codes to come on. If your friend has a scan tool that can read data, hook it up and get the reading for your MAF sensor, it should be about 4-7 grams per second at idle.

Both Codes for that ford are very common for either a PCV elbow behind the intake manifold, its a rubber 90 degree elbow most times. Also the Mass Air Flow sensor is common, You have to remember if you have both codes then both banks of the engine are effected. Meaning the Left and Right side of the "V-6". So all of your fuel injectors will never go out at the same time and the driver side sensor is only for one side. The PCV elbow and MAF sensor will effect both sides. Keep me posted!

I have a 2010 Mustang GT that was throwing the P0171 and P0174 two months ago. I have an extended warranty and took it to the dealer for them to check out. Their diagnostic conclusion was that the o2 sensors needed to be replaced. New o2 sensors and codes cleared and I was back on the road. My mileage has dropped by almost 2mpg since that time. Last night, my check engine light went on again and my code reader shows the same codes again. You mention so many things that could cause these codes. Shouldn't the dealer have checked for vacuum leaks, MAFS, etc as part of their diagnostic process to conclude the o2 sensors were the only culprit? Thanks.

My story: I have a (used) 2005 Ford Five Hundred with P0171 & P0174 Lean Codes. After attempting to locate any air leaks, I decided to change out the air filter. The air filter was excessively dirty and oily (probably had never been changed). After replacing with a new one, I dove thirty miles and the light has go off. I have driven now over four hundred miles and still no light. I am thinking that the excessive oil or fuel smell that was coming off of the dirty air filter was causing the computer to think that the car was running too lean when really, it wasn't. So one step I have not heard anyone mention is to check the air filter. Hope it helps.

I have had this issue for years! I have a 2000 Jaguar XK8. It has had some issues, I was having a problem with the fuel pressure regulator. It had a leak and I replaced it. It dropped a valve seat and had the head repaired. I finally got the car back after a long time and it seemed all good except the old problem of codes P0174 and P0171. I actually had them before. When the valve work was done, and before I picked it up my mechanic would run the motor, well he finally ran it out of gas and blew the fuel pump. I got the pump and the filter replaced as well as a crumbled tube that connects the snorkel to the valve cover. I had earlier replaced the MAF. I realized I put a non Denso in and replaced that with a Denso MAF. I have tried spraying carb cleaner around the intake, and noticed no difference in the running engine. I am driving the car about 8 miles in to work. It will toss the codes usually toward the end of the ttrip. It occurs when I am stopped or backing up, like into my driveway on the return home. There are certain traffic lights I get stopped at where it codes. I also get a dreaded RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE alert. I can clear the codes and it will run fine. If I don't clear it will go with limp home speed for a few moments. The Restricted performance clears and it runs fine then. The P codes stay.

I just rescently got this issue, the P0171 code error and the issue had to do with the injectors but no quite whats mentioned here (them being dirty or cloged) it was acctually the plastic seals for the injectors that make contact with the head of the engine. they where too small and not sealing the space between the head hole and the injectors. At this point I guess it´s important to mention that the car was coming out of a rescent overhaul less than a month prior to the inccident,and the parts and gaskets where not all original, this including said injector seals, wich are just tiny dounut shaped plastic pices. whell the ones in my ¨rebuild kit¨ where a bit too skinny and didint snug the space neough to seal it, and thats where the extra air was creeping in making my engine shake irregularly and my check engin light to go on.

This is what I encountered. I have a 07 Pontiac Grand Prix GT 3.8 supercharged Engine with about 110,000 miles on it. I had some vacuum lines replaced a rear main oil seal and my intake manifold gasket replaced because of a minor oil leak. After the repairs I was getting an intermittent P0171 code. Sometimes it would be on and sometimes it would be off, Engine temperature never really mattered. My Mechanic suggested we clean injectors, Mass Air Flow Sensor to remedy the problem. Although the car ran a little smoother the CEL would still come on. My Mechanic then suspected the Intake Manifold Gasket although had been replaced may be the culprit. Before I had him do that, I tried something on my own. I located the PCV valve which sits on top of the Supercharger in a recessed port secured by a metal cap by two 10mm bolts. Under this cap is a spring and the PVC valve is under the spring. I removed the spring and the valve, on the barrel end of the valve is an O-Ring it was worn so bad it was hard and flat the valve itself barley rattled unless it was shook real hard. I replaced the valve and the O-Ring, cleared the code and the Check Engine Light hasn't returned since and that was almost a month ago. Hope this helps anyone with a GM supercharged Engine that is getting the P0171 lean code.

Before paying for any sensors or catalytic converter, do a smoke diagnostic check. I was getting lean codes 171 and 174. Smoke test ($150) found bad variable intake valve. Paid $500 (included diagnostic test) vs over $2,000 from Toyota for sensors and converter which would not of fixed anything.

love this video The people's garage, I'm a new subscriber.I had a brake booster that was bad had a air noise under the dash I replaced the booster before I replaced that I had codes P0171, P174 and P0455 after I replaced the booster the P0174 was gone leaving me the P0171 and P0455. I forgot to tell you I have a 1998 ford ranger 4.0 4×4 v6.I replaced the spark plugs and wires, brake booster, and fuel filter and replaced 3 big vacuum hoses that was close to the master cylinder attached to something I don't know what it was I thought maybe purge solenoid I'm not sure.I have high idle at start up then it calms down after I let it run, I also have a problem where my hvac vents inside the truck only blow out of the defrost and not any of the other vents could there be a vacuum leak causing this as well

I ended up with 171& 174, both banks. Changed fuel filter, cleaned MAS, cleaned air filter, cleared codes. 2000 Silverado 5.3 ran great for a month. Check engine light back on & hesitation when engine is around 170 degrees. Runs great cold & runs great at full 195 temperature. Hard to figure. Technition friend said idles too good to be intake gaskets.

Brake booster could cause a vacuum leak and cause both codes to show up at once.

Hi god night. I own an 07 Fusion 3.0 V6 yesterday i replaced the intake filter for a new one. I have had the k&n typhoon system for 3 years now so far so good. After replacing it i disconnected the negative terminal for 20mins in order to re learn trim fuel levels as i considered it was neccesary the old filter was horrible even if i clenaed it regulary. Start up really rough idle engine jumping all around car shaking all the way. So what i did: Electronic cleaner for MAF, MAP, cleaned connector male and female for EGR, MAP, MAF, Throttle Body and 3 front coils. Checked for vacuum leaks at typhoon duct, PCV vent hose, intake manifold. Checked torque for 7 bolts for the manifold. Everything ok checked codes got both p0171-74 then fuel pressure 60psi left 2 hour the pressure indicator did not move a bit. Went back to old air filter reset ecm no help same issue. Im lost right now going crazy only thing left is dirty fuel injectors but as you said that would be for one bank not the two of them. Any help? Thanks in advance!!!👍
