Need the great Ranger Guru's help Eng light issue
Ok I have been trying to get this dam check eng, light off in my truck for weeks
Let me start at the begining I had something break loose in my Cat. and it rattled all the time internally not the shield so I replaced it with new, While it was off the truck I had to move the truck in and out of the garage so Check Eng light came on. installed new cat and reset light and all good for about 3 weeks ' Then light came on again this time I checked codes PO171 and PO174 Fuel trim Bank one and two Lean condition. I have replaced both o2 sensors uppers on bank 1 and 2 replaced all spark plugs clean air filter , Cleaned Mass air flow replaced PVC have run a can or 2 of injector cleaner through the tank It is driving me crazy now I need to get through emmisions to get new tags any idea can't keep spending money and not fixing the issue Every time I reset the code before I did new plugs, light would stay off for a least three start cycles, now it comes on in about 4 mins It could be fuel pressure is low but the truck really runs so good I am baffled I wonder if the new cat convert is bad I am almost to the point of reinstalling the old one and see if the light goes out. Anyone have any idieas HELP |
Using the search button at the top of the pane and entering "p0171 p0174" I got three pages of threads.
Surely your answer must be in there somewhere. |
yeah I have read those threads they all seem to jump around and not really giving a answer to the question as to what fixed the problem

cats wont cause lean codes. if they were pluged it would cause a rich code. u have to have a vacuum leak, mass air flow, low fuel pressure possibly. these are about the only thing that can cause both banks to throw these 2 codes at the same time.

While checking some past threads one thing stuck out.
4.0s seem to like to loosen the intake bolts quite a bit. Check to make sure they are tight. |
I had the same set of problems early on as well, test your EGR valve, It did the trick for me for a long while. and it never hurts to check your fuel pressure. you can rent the tool from o'rileys or autozone
