The lean bank code usually means a bad O2 sensor, replace and your problem shoudl go away.

Can you provide with the codes?

I don't think so, it sounds like the fuel pump is going out or the fuel filter needs to be replaced, here is the location of the fuel filter and a guide to help you understand what the problem is.

Fuel pressure should be

Key On Engine Off 41-47 psi
