been getting a cel 45 or when i run a scanner p0171 which says i'm running lean on bank 1 its a 98 gsr with i/e. i've changed out the primary o2, new plugs and a new fuel filter. Cel will flip on after 30-40 miles after its been reset. any ideas ?

 

bump

 

Is this a stock tune? Check for vacuum leaks. Any FPR's or other mods besides I/E? AEM fuel rail, etc...?

I used to get that running 310cc injectors when my piggyback ECU (eManage) did not have the RPM wire plugged in. It was running way rich.

I would hook up a wideband O2 and check the A/F readings, but you proboably don't have access to that.

 

man not much help on this. you free today to look at it Howey?

 

p0171 System too lean. Comes on after two consecutive trips where a lean condition has occured.

Fuel supply: Fuel Pump, FPR, Fuel Filter, Injectors
Primary HO2
MAP Sensor
Contaminated Fuel
Valve Clearance
Exhaust Leakage
Improperly tuned ECU
Vacuum leak

Troubleshooting in order from shop manual:
Fuel pressure?
PHO2S stuck outside 0.3 - 0.6 Volts?
Evap Purge Control Solenoid hold vacuum?
Valve clearance in spces?
Replace Fuel injectors (or flow test)

It doesn't say in the manual, but my next step would be to try another ECU and check the MAP sensor.

stock tune. intake and exhaust. made sure there werent any vacuum leaks.new fuel filter and regulator.. after driving 50 miles the same code pops up.

map sensor on Snap-On scan tool was reading according to factory specs

We have been through all this already thats why we are asking. The car had a Jackson kit before and I think that the injectors are @ a different CC than a GSR 240cc but no way to tell. Slain compaired the GSR w/another and Injector color was the same white dot, the FPR was not. We swapped out FPR this saturday and cel back on next is swap Injectors today and see. Next will be fuel pump. cross your fingers.

 

Do you have access to another known good ECU? Maybe a clogged injector. Crossing fingers

 

ive been having the same problem. dealer said it was the primary O2 and the ecu causing that code. dont buy it, im just going with the O2 for now

 

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1890859 this guy has o2 sensors for cheap denso ones at that as well...

 

Well looks like we got it. Fuel pressure is now at correct pressure and Slain hasn't called yet.

 

Why was the fuel pressure low/high?

because someone put the wrong FPR on it was only allowing the fuel pressure to get to 38psi. In turn setting light for lean conditions.

 

errr driving home last night cel decides to pop on to put a damper on an already crummy night lol.. time to look at the pump and the injectors..&lt;frown&gt;

 

Well SLAIN lets hope the injectors is the problem. I wish there was a way to get the lot that sold you the car to pay for all this.

 

fixed! was the injectors. what they are out of we don't know. We fixed it without taking it to Midwest. hehehehehe

 

Cars driving great Will...thanks for all the help. Mom said the accord felt peppy again fack those autolite plugs lol

good now we can move on to the beast motor for that GSR
