The truck is running smoothly cold and hot. Code P01071 turned on light. Codes P0174 and P10102 were also present but had not triggered light yet.

Hello,

We do not know what the P01071 is it needs to be five digit but the lean mixture code P0174 is usually caused by a cylinder misfire or the MAF sensor needs to be replaced. I would use all AC Delco parts to do the tune up with wires as well. I would also get the MAF for ACDELCO as well.

Here are guides that will help us get started:

and

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken

It was P0171 lean on the other bank. I now suspect a larking intake manifold gasket.

The light went out the day after I cleaned the MAF.
