Check Engine light came on while on a cross country trip from New Mexico to SC pulling a 25 ft camper. Fuel consumption was excessive, 7-10 MPG after the light came on. Found the following codes set P0101, P0171 and P0174. Cleared the codes. Any ideas?

Thanks Bill H

Lean fuel condition could be caused by one of the following below:


1.Vacuum leaks

2.EGR and PCV valve.

3.Low fuel pressure.

4.Dirty fuel injectors.

5.Mass Air Flow Sensor.

6.Oxygen Sensor.
