Re: P1071 Code: System mixture to lean (Bank 1)
I would would pursue the P0102 DTC which is the MAF sensor. It has a low output frequency of less than 1500 Hz. Also, FSM lists it as a possible cause of the P0171 DTC. A scan with a full function scanner which Autozone does not use would probably show the short and long term trim values out of spec and point to the MAF.
I mentioned earlier to disconnect the MAF and then check driveability. See if the hesitation and bog disappears. You can safely drive with the MAF disconnected. The PCM will switch over the default programming when it sees no MAF signal. Quote:

Re: P1071 Code: System mixture to lean (Bank 1)
Well I pursued the P0102 DTC. As suggested I unplugged the maf (with car off this time). Car idled much better with no hesitation or stalling at all. Purchased some CRC maf cleaner, removed maf, cleaned and re-installed.
But symptoms remained the same. Ordered a new maf sensor from AZ (cardone). Installed as per directions supplied, and the car is performing beautifully. Prior to installing the new maf. I sprayed the throttle with CRC throttle body cleaner. BTW SES indication dissapeared on its own. So in closing this thread. I would like to thank the following for there help and input. BNaylor, MaxWedge,Mikey#1 and Stripe. Thanks. |
