P0171 Code Keeps Reoccurring
My '03 2.3 keeps throwing P0171 code, running too lean. Between the shop and I at this point we've tried quite a few things:
Round 1: - Old Upstream O2 sensor was bad, replaced with Motorcraft. Assumed that was the problem's source, but it came back. - Replaced PCV and hoses too, because they were old. Round 2: - Cleaned the MAF and replaced the air filter. - Found vac leak at the intake manifold #4, replaced gaskets. - Replaced valve cover gaskets, too. Test drive, code came back. Round 3: - Replaced MAF. Used a Delco, I think. OEM was not available. Code disappeared for a day, then came back this morning. My fuel pressure looked fine. What else should I be looking at? Not sure where to go from here. Overall it seems like things are running smoothly. Way better now than before this all started, but still getting codes. |
