P0171 and P0174 codes
Has anybody had these codes thrown after having the battery disconnected or alternator removed for an extended period? I removed my alternator to have a new voltage regulator installed, it was out 2 days, after reinstall, drove for about 1/2 hr., no problems and voltage problem eliminated. Drove the car the next evening and now I have these codes. I checked this morning for any vacuum leaks, short of removing the intake I found none, any help would be greatly appreciated

Strange as they are Fuel Trim Lean codes for bank 1 and bank 2 respectively. Don't know why your trim would go lean from having the battery disconnected. I'd clear codes and drive it to see if they came back.
