P0171 is Too Lean Bank 1
P0174 is Too Lean Bank 2

I am not sure on the first one, but I have had the other 2 before, so I remember them.

Later,
Derrick

I close to Lexington now, but I grew up around Evansville, IN.

A number or reasons would cause a lean condition. Have you added any mods recently?

It could definitely be the tune. Can you put it back in and clear the codes to see if the CEL comes back on.

Oh, I know where henderson is. We used to drive across the bridge to get the cheap gas and window shop at the car dealerships. I played in some softball games over there too.........way back. I went to USI.........graduated in 2002
