My engine idles and runs fine but has codes po171 and po174

Your still lean on both banks

Either the oxygen sensors failed or slowed
down & set a code or you have vacuum leaks

When ever you remove an intake-- you smoke it before
& after the job-- to avoid vacuum issues

Fuel Trim may give you some idea where to start

Can be rich both banks & driven lean

My ford truck failed the smog test because bank 1 and 2 are to lean ( p0171 & p0174 )

possible solutions are, a dirty maf sensor. remove manifold air flow sensor and clean it with maf sensor cleaner. you can buy a can at any auto parts store to clean, take off and clean maf sensor, do not touch inside of sensor it is very fragil. when cleaning sensor be sure it is dry before installing it back on vehicle. also check for a vacuum hose leak downstream of maf sensor.make sure air filter is clean. this usually takes care of the problem. po171 and po174 are the same. you can use electrical cleaner to clean sensor also. also check for a dirty fuel filter and fuel pressure, if needbe.

2002 Chevy Van with a 3400 code po171 too lean how to fix

Code PO171- Lean mix of Bank 1.
Code PO174- Lean mix of Bank 2.

Most of the time a P0171 and P0174 is caused by either a vacuum leak--more than likely the PCV hose and valve or a dirty or defective Mass Airflow (MAF)sensor. Low fuel pressure can also cause this condition. The PCV hose is located on bank one but can affect both sides because the other end is located on the back of the upper intake manifold. Usually they deteriorate and get a hole in it.

Clean the the MAF sensor with MAF cleaner, which you can pick up at any Auto parts store and also pick up a bottle of fuel injector cleaner. Good luck and hope this helps.

Geting code po171 & po174

This is an indication that the PCV Elbow Hose is cracked or eroded. Also check the fuel filter.
Either of these 2 are faulty. Replace them, it will be solved.
Thank you Sir, Have a nice day.

Code po171 7 po174

your computer is reporting bank 1 and 2 too lean, usually caused by the mass air flow (MAF) sensor, you can usually clean this sensor and reset the light. Clean it with electric cleaner or brake cleaner, make sure it is dry before reinstalling, also take care not to damage it. Hope this helps, let me know
