| Need Assistance Pls!!! by Devirus2(op): 10:41am On Feb 08, 2015 |
Good day gurus in the house. I have an rx 300 lexus cuv and my cel light comes on and goes off periodically. I have scanned and detected the famous P0171 code. I have checked for leaks, cleaned my maf and checked my o2 sensors and everything is working fine. It begun when I bought a new fuel tank and told my mecho to service my injectors. Kindly give suggestions as to helping me. Cos I really hate the sight of my cel every time I drive the car. Thanks |

Devirus2:How did you do the bolded? You have a vacuum leak, or possibly a faulty bank1 oxygen sensor. Do a live scan and check values from o2 sensors and post here. |

How do you service inlet manifold? ![]() |
| Re: Need Assistance Pls!!! by chillex8(m): 5:55pm On Feb 08, 2015 |
Devirus2:All you need is a live scan. Maf readings @ idle= 0.4lib/min. Should not go lower than this. O2 sensors readings= 0.1v-0.9v. Lastly, have you checked your positive crankcase ventilation valve and hose Start with that.You should be checking for blockage and stiffness. Normally, you should hear it flicker when you shake. I will assume there is no vacuum leak. |
