P0171 basically means you have a vacuum leak usually the first place I go to the gas cap to make sure it was tightened properly because if it is not then you're going to show a vacuum leak.

Hey David, thanks for watching. So a vacuum leak can set a P0171 but there's also a ton of other things. Also, the gas cap is more likely to set an EVAP code like P0440 or something before setting a lean code. Mike Becker, Senior Instructor

@@GoTechTraining actually was kinda losing my mind about an O2 sensor on my 1999 Saturn SL2. Had a head gasket go recently because back when I rebuilt the engine, I used bad head bolt instruction from a Haynes manual. Managed to get 140,000 miles out of the gasket using original head bolts, but it finally failed, and kinda contaminated the O2 sensor. New bolts, new gasket, proper tightening sequence, new fuel filter at 358,000 miles (3rd one for this car), and new O2 sensor, and whenever I took the car over 70 or floored it, the readings would max and then drop to zero. Thought too much fuel or too little fuel, but the pressure holds constant on the original pump, and trims are otherwise in range. Put back in the old sensor, and it started doing the same thing. At this point I'm thinking wiring or computer, and the old one did it worse at any freeway speeds. It was terrible. Made the car run super rich because the computer started adding fuel when it dropped to zero. (Also checked plug gaps, wire resistance, and coil resistance at 70°F.) Finally grabbed an old sensor I had lying around that I pulled long ago for slow response, and it works at all speeds and loads! So they were just overheating and shorting. Have another on order. Hope it won't be defective.

I got that fixed and now the car sometimes runs -18 but mostly stays on -6 to -12 range on short trim and bounces from -10 to 3 on long trim. How many driving cycles does it take for it to adjust to normal .So far I drove the car 3 times

Hey Jimmy, usually it happens pretty quick. Sometimes it's best to clear the fuel trims and drive with it fresh. Mike Becker, Senior Instructor

Also for the vehicle to be running rich, you could be getting blow by and the air gathering up oil and taking it through a failed crank case vent or pcv into the intake whereby it would be burnt and making the exhaust rich.

Graeme in OZ UPDATE !!!!!!!!! This weekend may have found my issue, while checking PCV valve I noticed there was a small rubber pipe connected to the valve cover then led to PCV valve the push on connection was very easy to pull apart so I installed small hose clamp to secure it. I then connected my newly acquired Foxwell NT301 OBD2 Engine Fault Code Reader Scanner and found the instrument gave me a green tick indication when connected where as before it was an orange triangle (Yellow indicates there's an issue that has been solved). The Short Term Fuel Trim readings now look better showing around -2 banks 1 & 2 LTFT is about -9 but from what I've read this takes time to adjust after problem is resolved. Will need to take her for a few drives to see if I have solved the 13 Year issue !!!!!!!!. Graeme in OZ

@DavidLopez-xp1ht

4 жыл бұрын

Did you ever find out the problem? I’ve been looking everywhere for this, but I have not had luck.

I had P0172 and P0175 codes on my 2013 GMC Sierra 2500hd. Once I pulled everything up on the computer, I noticed my fuel alcohol content was @ 64%. I reset that and got rid of my rich codes. Now I have a P0300 code and O2 sensor codes for both upstream sensors. Fuel trims are perfect. What could be my issue? I'm planning to check for fouled plugs and maybe bad coils but I thought it was weird I didn't have any misfires codes until after I reset the FAC and trim levels back to zero. Also all 4 O2 sensors are brand new and operate in range.

I have this problem since two months now, which literally drives me crazy! About the symptoms: Very noticeable jerking, stuttering and starting difficulties when the engine is warm/hot. Sometimes the engine won't even start at all. Engine has starting-problems. The problem only occurs after the engine has warmed up and ONLY when starting/idling. Error only occurs after about 10-15 minutes after the car has been shut down. ISTA says P0172: system too rich; which means that the DME either detects too little air or too much gasoline. So to reproduce the problem: 1. Car start perfectly when cold, not a single problem or vibration! 2. I drive half an hour normally (City/motorway) 3. Shutting the car off. 4. Waiting 15 - 20 minutes 5. Restarting the engine 6. Either the car starts with huge difficulties (sputters, shakes, jerks) OR it stalls and shuts off immediately. So far I've replaced: Intake manifold gaskets. (Even though this can't be the cause of the issue, since in the event of an air leak the DME would detect too much air and not too little (or am I wrong there?) 6x injectors 6x spark plugs 6x ignition coils MAF 2 O2-sensors 2 MAP sensors Air Filter Engine oil change (with filter) 2 Camshaft Positioning sensors Cleaned both Vanos-Selenoid Crankshaft Positioning sensor I'm struggling to understand why an intake leak would cause a rich mixture?!ISTA says I have to check the Intake system... (I already checked 3 times!, although without a smoke-tester) Wouldn't an air leak cause a lean condition since unmeasured air enters the engine? OR The ECU demands more fuel because there's an intake leak. In other words; since there is unexpectedly more air in the system, the DME has to spray more fuel to compensate the unmeasured air; hence "system too rich"? Therefore the ECU recognised that more fuel is sprayed into the engine as usual and because of this the DME says: system too rich? ----------------------------------- Intake leak = More (unmeasured) air requires more fuel to be sprayed into the engine to compensate the "unknown" air, therefore "system too rich" --> Because the DME has to put more fuel then normal? OR Intake leak = More (unmeasured) air requires more fuel to be sprayed into the engine to compensate the "unknown" air, therefore "system too lean"? --> Because there is more air then normal? Am I losing the plot here? Both make sense, but which one is scientifically and physically right? I'm desperate and on the verge of a mental breakdown

@GoTechTraining

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Ken, Your vehicle uses an algorithm to calculate fuel ethanol %. When you reset the fuel composition, it defaults to >10% ethanol. Since E85 burns at closer to a 10:1 ratio compared to Gasoline at 14.7:1 it will cause your vehicle to run lean and set those codes. The only way to fix this issue without measuring the ethanol content and re-programing the ECM. Is to run the tank empty and put in a tank of regular 10% or less ethanol in and do the fuel composition reset again. This way the ECM learned percentage will match the fuel in the tank. Unless you manually drain the tank, you may have to do this twice to get the % back to normal. Hope this helps, Thanks Ryan W, Technical Instructor

Thank you for watching A Rahman! On your suburban, these were very common to run into fuel composition calculation issues. There should be a PID on your scanner saying ethanol content. Verify that seems right. if you are running standard pump gas we usually look for 5-10%. Anything higher than that can give you issues. Ethanol requires higher fuel volume which could be exactly why your truck is running rich. Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

I have replaced my O2 sensors, engine coolant temperature sensor, injectors, mass airflow sensor, fuel pressure sensor and about to change my fuel pressure regulator,fuel filter all vacuum lines as well as PCV valve, throttle position sensor. I got a new IAT but the vacuum tube on it fell off so I put the old one back on. I’ve done a compression test and all are within spec new spark plugs and coils and have swap the wires out with some wires that I had from before just to see if the ones that were on it are bad. The plugs are the dual tipped plugs that are recommended. There is a colder intake on the system which has been working fine on it for the past five years. All my fuses and relays check out yeT I am still getting a -20 something for my short term -17ish for my long-term. I get a misfire cylinder one error code but when I look at cylinder one misfire Count is less than 10 in the span of an hour. If I hit the throttle short term will zero out for a few seconds and then slowly Drop back to -20. When the engine is cool and I start it the mass air will be pulling close to 10 psi but after it Gets done with its warm-up cycle it drops down to around 3 sometimes even 2 1/2 psi. My injection it’s so low that the car almost stalls out somewhere in the upper 2gpm area. And when I first start the vehicle after it cooling down for a while it takes a long time to start.

Hey Pete, overheating is never a good thing. You could have a headgasket/cylinder head issue causing your concern. I'd start by checking compression. Mike Becker, Senior Instructor

I have an old school truck a 89 s10 pickup with a 2.5 liter engine and a manual transmission. I have replaced everything but the tps and map sensor. New exhaust including the cat. New gas tank and fuel pump. Odd thing with this truck is it hates fuel pumps. Person I purchased truck from also replaced the fuel pump and hanger assembly. I live near Harrisburg Pa and I can drive for about 15 minutes and the truck runs fine. It's like a switch was hit and the truck starts to run like crap. When I put my foot on clutch the engine almost stalls. Sometimes it does. The engine shakes violently and I almost didn't make it home today. How does the engine go from running great to running like crap? I wish you could give the ecm a error. I have a snap on red brick. I got codes 23 22 13 34 and 32. Before I left this morning I unplugged the o2 sensor hoping to keep it in open loop. The only thing I don't understand on the red brick is the spark count and block learn and interrogater. I know the o2 sensor works and it's not lazy. What is causing this? The way they engineer stuff is why I don't do this professionally any more. The stupid stuff engineers come up with. Don't know how you deal with their stupidity!

Hey, sorry you're running into such big issues with your truck! Have you checked you system for rust? Maybe you have some rust in the fuel rail that's plugging up injectors? Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

Very informative... thanks for taking the time.

@ThePariss333 Well, good thing you can skip around in the video then...or play at 2x speed! Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

I have a 06 VW beetle 2.5l. I have a p0171 code. Did a smoke test and no vacuum leak was detected. Car is running rough on idle and reading short term 25% and long term 20%. I changed the maf back in July and it was running great until now. No maf code or anything when it started to have problems. I was told to replace the 02 sensors. Please help.

Is it possible your MAF went bad again? How does it react under WOT? Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

I have a 2002 Dodge Neon SE, P0172 code with 160,000 miles. No vacuum leaks, new plugs, new map sensor, new IAC, new O2, and new injectors. Still have the code after reset. Can you guys help? I`m ready to push my daily driver off a cliff. Fuel trims are pegged at -25. codes were reset after each part was replaced. Car will not pass Pa. inspection with MIL on.

Hi guys. I have watched a ton of your videos and loads others and still stuck. i am working on a 2001 corolla.1.8l..174,000 miles. code is a po171..lean bank 1. I have high fuel trims. shrt sometimes maxs out at 19.5% and lngt is always high 15 to 20 % +. Trims will drop at 2500rpm...maf reading about 1.8 at idle and rises up to 8 or 9 at 2500rpm. I have done a smoke test and could not detect a leak. o2s b1 wave looks ok, average about .485, and does switch wave from .1 to about.800...I dont think its fuel delivery because the trims drop at higher rpms. . vacuum tested about 21 with needle bounce, possible valve guides leak? Freeze frame showed Fsystem..cl...ECT 179Deg,,, shtft -2.2,,, lgtft 34.4%,,,rpm, 710,,,,,IAT 95Deg,,, I am about to start throwing money at it. not sure what else to do. i need the car fixed to pass emmisions for my daughter to start college. Live in tx and have to pass emmisions. Looking at new maf,o2sensors. Already changed pcv and air filter and cleaned the maf.Help !!

My 03 F150 Lariat 5.4 keeps giving me a P0401 code and negative trims around -12 to -16. I have replaced EGR valve, DPFE sensor (and hoses), EGR tube, EGR vaccum solenoid, IAC valve, plugs, coils, intake manifold, fuel injectors, and EVAP purge solenoid...

hi, i,m new subscriber, great video! my car is nissan skyline 300gt 2002 year. lambda is 1,017, but CO is very high 1,57-1,76. what is possible causes? thanks!

CEL TOO RICH TO LEAN AND MISFIRES. I changed maf sensor n air filters. Light still on Then Changed all Fuel injectors light still on. Changed all spark plugs and all oxygens sensors light still popped back on. What could this be please help! I’m tired of fixing stuff that probably wasn’t the answer. Last hope was the oxygen sensors once they were out they were fried bad . Once I clear the codes rev up and drive it handles fine. But once sitting idled it sputters

Great after 6 years 🇯🇲

Hi I need some help I have p1137 add fuel bank 1 rich. I have put all new parts to do with that code still comes up.

Hi again.. I have another question and is regarding my car.. I have bad CO, HC emmission problem. Mine has an ECU. And if my O2 and other sensors which cause rich conditions have problems it will show as an error code ryt?? in my car no such error code exists.. does it mean that i have problem other than sensors? or can sensor performance be poor which cannot be identified by ecu???

HI Vidura, there are many issues that can cause rich issues without the computer flagging them. Injectors are the first thing to come to mind. They could be leaking potentially. I would try to see if you can force the engine lean. That way you know your oxygen sensor is functioning properly. Mike Becker, Technical Services Instructor

Thank you guy’s for your patience and knowledge, where do I join classes? You guy’s should teach classes online or thrue zoom

Hi great lesson, my LTFT is at 0% since I checked a few months ago, does that mean my trims are really good? my STFT go's from -6% to +6 and bounces up and down between the two . is that a good thing ?

Hey 337 Thanks. Yeh that sounds good. Your short terms will bounce, that's normal. +/- 6 sounds pretty average. Long terms at 0 is what's really nice. Means the car seems to be dialed in! Mike Becker, Technical Services Instructor

Hello I have this code PO134 on a 96 Buick Century 3.1 V6. I have a new O2 sensor in it can help me with this problem ?

Hey Marco, so a PO134 is related to an HO2s. Have you verified a good ground circuit. Also, is this a 1 wire or 3 wire sensor on here? If it has a heater you'll want to check that. Also, make sure the wire from the PCM to the sensor is ok. Mike Becker, Technical Services Instructor

Fantastic lecture! A connected topic: anybody knows how to deactivate learning procedure on a flex fuelcar (volvo in this case) . Thre is no ethanol content sensor but computer leatns thru the Lambda readings and injection pulse duration ...causing many problems when driving regular fuel. I am tired iwth them so simply would love to deactivate the process but there is no obvious way to do so. I can only reset the content to the default value of 50%. Then the crap learns and sometimes rich 70% with the engine to be floode on a cold start. Ideas?

Thank you very much! That seems crazy that the car would "learn" such a high ethanol count with no ethanol in the fuel..what's it truly learning? Are you sure you don't have something wrong causing it to read so rich? I've seem the algorithms get stuck, GM especially, but after resetting they are usually ok again. Is there maybe a software re-flash for the car or something? Mike Becker, Senior Technical Instructor

@@GoTechTraining I missed your reply! Thanks. There is a counter for ethanol content and each time you fill the tank the learning algorithm is initiated. It learns thru the lambda and injections timing. Therefore if there is something wrong with with fuel to sir ratio it interprets it as alternate fuel percentage in the tank and store ty he ethanol content reading. Next time you want to start in cold conditions it ask long injection time to account for ethanol and the engine is flooded. And I have a bi-directional tool so I am able to reset the content to the default (50% !) value. So yes, apparently there is something wrong but it is do tough to find out with this intelligence involved 😂. Would love to deactivate it first but have no idea how. Thinking about replacing the ECU for similar engine one but not accommodated as the flex fuel.

I am facing issues with p0172 ... I changed fuel injectors, air fuel ratio sensor, o2 sensor downstream, ignition coils and sparks
