Injectors and lean codes do they mix?
If I were to get a lean code for bank 1 and clear that code and then have same code for bank 1&2, clear that code and get a single bank 1 code lean again,
Here is it question.... Could a single or multiple injectors be fouled up (dirty) or fuel not being atomized or sprayed incorrectly.
Thanks
David
Po171/po174 codes. 93 tier 1 gas always used

Possible things to check are:
Visually/physically inspect the following items: (check these first)
Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and proper connections.
Crankcase ventilation valve and/or system for leaks.
Contaminated fuel.
PCM and sensor grounds are clean, tight and in the proper locations.
Air induction system after MAF sensor for vacuum leaks.
Engine mechanical failure.

Well, it's back. Even after a GM injector cleaner service. My evasive code P0174 is back. I will double check bolts around scavenger section to make sure tight. Any other ideas?

IMHO injector cleaner is just about worthless. May be worth pulling injectors and having them cleaned and flow mapped.
Just did mine with 20K and they picked up between 1 and 4% flow, also a good time to put the fat ones in the back.

go to any auto parts store and ask for MASS CLEANER make sure that it says that on the label. check all the bolts on the manifold. you may still have to SMOKE the intake and check for leaks. a seal on the manifold may have misshapen.
