Allright guys, I have tried everything to get this CEL off without pulling codes, but I think it's time I get that done. Does anyone here have an OBD II reader? or should I just take it down to the dealership and accept the charges/risk of them ripping me off for crap i dont need?

S'pose i could do that if I wanted to do it the EASY way.... lol, didn't realize they pulled it for free. It's quite a drive for me to get to one tho, does Checker or Carquest do it as well?

turns out I had to go downtown, so i hit up the autozone at evans/broadway. I am registering P0171 and P0174, banks 1 and 2 are running lean. I am doing a search right now, but does this sound like a definitive 02 sensor problem, or could it be a TB, aftermarket MAF, or something similair?

Do you have a aftermarket MAF? If so that could be it. Do you have and open air filter? If so did you clean/oil it recently? I ask because I over oiled my filter one time and it got some oil on the MAF sensor itself and I pulled those codes. Cleaned the MAF, reset pcm and all was good.

YA, its sounding like the proFlows had some faulty calibrations in my model year, so I'm gonna go ahead and reinstall the original(if i can find it, if not, expect a call mario) and then have the ProFlow recalibrated if that's it. If not, I guess it's about time to clean that filter, does any air filter oil work, even if it's not a K&N filter?

So I have heard about the filter oil. But then again I cant say for sure with the K&N car filter. I do that alot with all my Gas On-road/Off-road RC cars. heh
