what exactly is wrong with the car that would cause it to idle lean?

the check engine light is on for weeks at a time and occasionally goes away. i got the engine codes read and it came back as the car is idling too lean. the reader said the probable causes were the maf sensor vacuum leak or the piston misfiring. but the car feels like it runs fine even at idle. any suggestions?
