P0171 showing up...
I did a search, really couldn't find an answer, so here's the question: A friend's 2001 F150 with the 4.2 popped up the P0171 code the other day. The reader said it was the P/S bank, so with 130,000 miles, and a recently-replaced D/S O2 sensor, we took the advice of the guy at the shop and replaced the P/S O2 sensor in the manifold and reset the light. It was fine for a few days, but the CEL came back on, and after another visit to have the codes read, same code, but now showing on both banks. I didn't realize that there were 2 more O2 sensors in the cats, but before we replace those, does it sound like that could fix it? I check the MAF, thinking it might need cleaning, but it looked clean, as was the inside of the intake. I'm really hesitant to mess with the MAF given it's fragile nature, if it did need to be cleaned, would that be something visible to the naked eye, or are those things so sensitive that tiny particles would foul it?
So, aside from the O2 sensors and the MAF, is there anything else that could set that code?
Thanks!
