My service engine soon light came on after driving the interstate for 3 hours at 70 mph and I took the car to advance auto and they did a diagnostic test. They said it was a lean fluid left bank and at first was told to put fuel injection fluid in it and the light was reset. I drove the car around town for a week and light didnt come back on. Then I drove the interstate again at 70 mph for about 4 hours and the light came back on again. I took it to another advance and they told me the same thing but that I may have a leak. What is the best route to go on fixing this problem?
