I did as you had said, "about going to autozone" to have the systems codes check. It came back with 4 codes, ie. P0171, P0174, P1131 and P1151. What is the next step to fix this problem? I just would like ya to point me in the direction I should go from here.

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.

Lucas Complete fuel system treatment (found at most autoparts stores) could take care of a couple of those issues related to clogs in the fuel system. It could be the o2 or egr, though
