Check engine light with codes

Hi all, this is my first post so bear with me. I've got a 97 F-250 with the 460. Last week, my check engine light came on and I scanned the codes with a reader from Autozone. The codes that came out were a "171" and a "174" which indicated a lean condition. Has anyone seen this before and what is the solution? I had the O2 sensors replaced 10,000 miles ago if that helps. Thanks

Dave

Lean is either a vacuum leak(check each one through the plastic loom) or injectors or fuel delivery problem i.e. low fuel preasure

I was led to this thread when I reported the same thing pretty much.

Great info, thanks. Sounds like I'll be checking my PVC valve/hose.
