Hey guys,
My CEL came on several days ago so I took it to PepBoys to have them pull the codes. I got following codes: P0171, P0174, P0156.
I know that P0156 code means O2 sensor malfunction (Bank 2, Sensor 2). I read, however, that I should address the other codes before replacing the sensor, if in fact it even needs to be replaced.
So, I suppose a vacuum leak is the first place to look. I have yet to dive in and look for my PCV valve. That'll come tomorrow morning.
Several months ago, I replaced the that 90 degree elbow shown below. The factory elbow had essentially deteriorated into nothing. The section of hose to the left of the elbow had to be replaced as well. I replaced it with some hose I had lying around, the photo below is what it looks like now. Is this hose assembly part of the vacuum system?
Thanks in advance.
