MIL/CEL and Restricted performance
#2
#4
So, these are the same three codes that dogged the PO and I thought were taken care of (and may well have been) when car was emission checked and passed by the state of Arizona before we transferred title. The right/left bank codes P0171 and 174 (lean bank) and drive cycle code P0100. The baffled intake tube was total crap bodged with tape and silicone goo. I replaced it with an aluminum tube (3 1/4") and prettied up the SC intake with new black paint at the same time. So plenty of room here to create a leak there. Also did that delicate engine clean up which may have caused the transmission module communication code dealt with in another post, btw (since then no problems).
The reason I asked the question is that the amber MIL and restricted performance will occur after shut down and restart or during drive cycle and almost immediately go out. And of course the CEL will remain. No noticeable performance degradation (except when RP lcd is indicated in window). Freeze Frame shows bank 1 LTFT at 19.5 and same for bank 2. short terms are 7 and 2.3 respective. I've only driven it on short runs after some tinkering with the replaced intake tube and obviously the codes return (after cleared with scanner). So it's to the JTIS and some more intensive work I suppose. The car runs as if there is no problem, fast, steady, no missing, etc. Nothing tactilely obvious. I'm just used to non-computerized vehicles, hammers and screw drivers. Forgot to mention all plugs, O2 sensors and coils are replaced. And yeah the car has high miles 168K.

Keep going Jagstuart!
I think you mean P1000? That means someone cleared all the codes and you have not driven the car far enough or the correct way so the readiness monitors can set.
As we have talked I think you have an vacuum leak at your P/B vacuum hose connection on the back if the induction elbow.
If you get it fixed please report back too.

OK so . . . got out the camping propane bottle some hose and a length of copper tubing. checked all around the intake tube, MAF sensor and found no change in stft (base was 12.3 for bank 1 and 7.8 for bank 2). poked it into the approx. area of the PB vacuum elbow at the sc induction intake and they dropped to 10.9 and 5.5, (and one scan was 10.2 and 4.7). stft went back up when i pulled it out. all this done at idle. is this enough of a change to indicate the leak. seems iffy to me. not a whole lot of propane is gassing out of the copper tube mind you.

got the two vacuum intakes in the induction intake fixed (brake and bypass supplies). ltft and stft were looking good on test run. stopped, short shut down, restart and viola! codes for lean banks again. plus limp mode, which went away once under speed again. double checked repairs (carb cleaner and i930 monitoring) and they're good. any other obvious/chronic leak areas?
MORE INFO: went out and scanned it again just now. cold idle stft both banks at -4.7, both banks ltft 19.5
just within operating temp 2 1500 RPM stft bank 1 -3.1 bank 2 -4.7
ltft banks 1 & 2 -8.0
so do i just need to let the ecu learn a new ltft number or do i have an obvious leak as show by idle values?

have you watched this vid it is really help full in understanding the problem you have.
go to the end and it will show you how the trims should change if you have a air leak.
If you go to the start of part two it will show how to check to see if you have a weak fuel pump.
both of which can give you a lean code.
