I have a 1996 Honda Accord Automatic. My check engine light comes on and I checked the codes and it says i am running lean. I have changed both oxygen sensors and had a tune up so the spark plugs and wiring are all changed but I keep getting that code. what else could it be?
My first thought was fuel pressure. Low fuel pressure would cause the engine to go lean but not set a code for the actual problem.
Is it possible the fuel filter is clogged ? Have you checked fuel pressure?
No I have not checked the fuel pressure. Where would be the best place to check it. I am a handy female and like to try everything once. If it is something i can do my self how would I be able to do so?
At the very least you would need a fuel pressure gauge which is a special tool.
There may be a port on the fuel rail to access, or you may have to take the fuel line apart and use an adapter to Tee into the line.
I would recommend a shop.

First off, Hondas do not run MAF. If the car seems like it is driving better than before the light came on, it could be that the code just hasnt cleared yet. My 95 accord did the same after a fix, I just had to drive it to run the drive cycles.

Hi,welcome to fix ya.
p0171 is for a lean fuel condition .A variety of things can cause this code the most common one is a bad o2 sensor but a plugged injector,fuel filter or dirty egr system can cause this as well.

I had the have the transmission replaced. Since it was replaced, it still hesitates a little. Sometimes the light blinks but when I let off the gas the engine like then stays solid. This ALL started after I went to Wal-mart and got the system flush that was supposed to help improve the gas miliage. Ever since then the engine light has stayed on even after changing both oxygen sensors and getting a complete tune up.
