P0171, P0174 and scan tool readings
I have a 2005 Toyota Solara SLE, 133,000 miles, with P0171 and P0174
codes, lean mixture in both banks, and a check engine light that returns soon after being cleared. I've cleaned and then replaced the MAF sensor, replaced the PCV valve, and listened all over for hissing. I have a constant noise in one ear, like the sound of water running in a pipe, but I still think I'd be able to hear hissing with the other ear, and even the bad one. I've also used an unlit propane torch with a hose on the end to direct propane to every place I thought there could be a vacuum leak and there are no engine-sound changes. I think cleaning the MAF sensor actually made it run worse. The hesistation at 1mph, which was occasional, became frequent. Changing the MAF sensor didn't have any effect. These are the sensors readings, at idle, then at 2000, 3000, and 4000rpm as best as I could hold the throttle at those places: Below are the sensor 2 readings, I've included the Sensor 1 readings below them, but they seem less interesting. Below that are a few sets of trim readings, 2 or 3 at each rpm. I have the complete set of readings if that will help, but I thought it would make this post too long, and that intervals were easier to compare without the extra lines. The MPH is always 0 but I could do it again with the car moving, with someone helping if need be.

Even though Bank 2 Sensor 2 gives values at every interval. Does that indicate maybe that the Bank 1 sensor 2 has failed???? Could that cause the codes, even for bank 2? I talked to the original owner, who had owned the car since it was new, and she first got the CEL in March. She took it in, they could find nothing wrong, so they turned off the light and she said the light never went on again. She has no reason to lie to me, because I'd already bought the car, and not from her. (She traded in the car to a new car dealer who auctioned it and I bought if from the guy who bought it at the auction.) The car hesitates from 1mph. Probably not from 0 or 3mph or higher. I'll really appreciate any help you can give. Sensor 1 readings. From the same test, so the engine speeds are the same as above. I omitted as much as possible to make it easier to compare.

For example on the BMW X5 here, it's a 4" diameter rubber elbow that connects the intake ducting to the throttle body. It cracks and leaks. You can't hear it, I've never found a vacuum leak by sound. I've read stories of people buying fog/smoke making widgets that were designed for special effects, using them to blow smoke into the intake so you can see where it comes out. Might find one of those on Ebay to adapt. I think there are pro version tools that do similar, but I've never had to go that route to find the problem. |

I can imagine that even though the engine is not running, not much would come out, considering the atmosophere is not sucking like the engine is, but it still must work some of the time. |

I can imagine that even though the engine is not running, not much would come out, considering the atmosophere is not sucking like the engine is, but it still must work some of the time. Try using some spray Berrymans carb cleaner and spray around the intake and pcv hose and other vacuum hoses (etc.), if the engine RPM increases you've found a vacuum leak. -- RonNNN |

P0171, P0174 and scan tool readings

On that car, with that combination of codes, 99.9% you have an intake leak. 0.1% remaining, it's a bad primary O2 sensor. Just saying - Pull the manifold and replace all of the seals. Common problem I've cleaned and then replaced the MAF sensor, replaced the PCV valve, and listened all over for hissing. I have a constant noise in one ear, like the sound of water running in a pipe, but I still think I'd be able to hear hissing with the other ear, and even the bad one. I've also used an unlit propane torch with a hose on the end to direct propane to every place I thought there could be a vacuum leak and there are no engine-sound changes. I think cleaning the MAF sensor actually made it run worse. The hesistation at 1mph, which was occasional, became frequent. Changing the MAF sensor didn't have any effect. These are the sensors readings, at idle, then at 2000, 3000, and 4000rpm as best as I could hold the throttle at those places: Below are the sensor 2 readings, I've included the Sensor 1 readings below them, but they seem less interesting. Below that are a few sets of trim readings, 2 or 3 at each rpm. I have the complete set of readings if that will help, but I thought it would make this post too long, and that intervals were easier to compare without the extra lines. The MPH is always 0 but I could do it again with the car moving, with someone helping if need be.

Even though Bank 2 Sensor 2 gives values at every interval. Does that indicate maybe that the Bank 1 sensor 2 has failed???? Could that cause the codes, even for bank 2? I talked to the original owner, who had owned the car since it was new, and she first got the CEL in March. She took it in, they could find nothing wrong, so they turned off the light and she said the light never went on again. She has no reason to lie to me, because I'd already bought the car, and not from her. (She traded in the car to a new car dealer who auctioned it and I bought if from the guy who bought it at the auction.) The car hesitates from 1mph. Probably not from 0 or 3mph or higher. I'll really appreciate any help you can give. Sensor 1 readings. From the same test, so the engine speeds are the same as above. I omitted as much as possible to make it easier to compare.

Place I'd give prime attention to is the intake plumbing between the MAF and the throttle body. Anything there that's not rigid, like that 90 deg elbow made out of rubber with bellows like creases in it on my BMW is suspect. Make sure a connection hasn't come loose at a clamp. Sometimes car repair manuals have a diagram that shows all the vac hoses which is great, because you know where they go, what they do, and you can then isolate, test, etc. Also any history of any work that was done recently where something could have been disturbed or not reconnected? |

I even put a hose on it so I could tell where the propane was going, and I put it everywhere in the intake area two pieces met, rubber, metal, whatever, but nothing changed the RPM. I didn't want to use carb cleaner because the engine is almost spotless now and I figured it left residue. Is carb cleaner going to work better than propane? |

I have a 2005 Toyota Solara SLE, 133,000 miles, with P0171 and P0174 codes, lean mixture in both banks, and a check engine light that returns soon after being cleared. What are the O2 sensor(s) readings? Can your scanner read or map the O2 voltages? If not then use your dvm on the leads. Check when HOT! 2k-3k rpm. |

Have you tried any forums for the particular car/engine? Many times Yeah, I have. Maybe it's the age of the car or maybe it's the make, or maybe it's the people, but I don't get much in the way of answers for any of my questions including this one. Sometimes 80 people will look at it an no one will answer, and these are just people who have what ever gen Solara I have and whatever gen Camry goes with it. Questions about making the car look hot do better. I'll try again rephrasing it. So I thought to come at it from the other direction, data interpretation. Maybe I can find newer cars that used the same engine, 3MZ-FE. there are particular problem parts that are known to fail and cause a leak. For example on the BMW X5 here, it's a 4" diameter rubber elbow that connects the intake ducting to the throttle body. It cracks and leaks. You can't hear it, I've never found a vacuum leak by sound. I've read stories of people buying fog/smoke making widgets that were designed for special effects, using them to blow smoke into the intake so you can see where it comes out. Might find one of those on Ebay to adapt. I think there are pro version tools that do similar, but I've never had to go that route to find the problem. That's an idea. I can imagine that even though the engine is not running, not much would come out, considering the atmosophere is not sucking like the engine is, but it still must work some of the time. Try using some spray Berrymans carb cleaner and spray around the intake and pcv hose and other vacuum hoses (etc.), if the engine RPM increases you've found a vacuum leak. There is a TSB about this very issue from Toyota. A copy can be found at https://www.discountconverter.com/te...rter-&News=240 |

Well if it was good enough for him, I tried it a couple hours ago with the engine idling, after I cleared the codes I put my hand everywhere and couldn't feel any breezes. I also tried squeezing all the hoses. None of them felt mushy or seemed to be cracking, or seemed loose, or affected engine speed, and most look like new. (Especially the large pleated? corrugated? hose between the air cleaner and the plenum.) Then I got in the car and drove. In the past it took no more than 10 miles to set the codes and for a while it would do it in 1 or 2 minutes of idling. I forgot to look at pending codes until 6 miles out, and I had not only the 0171 and 0174, but I also had 2198!!! But after 4 more miles, there were no pending codes anymore, and no actual codes. And after 10 more miles to get home, still no codes. Plus, the engine doesn't seem to hesitate anymore, though maybe I learned how to accelerate to avoid that, and it's hard to go back to a style that was causing trouble.

There are a lot of hoses, but if this starts up again, I'll go through them more slowly and more deliberately Oh, I found out what p2198 means: "Stop squeezing my hoses." |

Also should mention that I used the tank with Techron fuel injector cleaner in it, and yesterday I filled the tank and put a can of Sea Foam fuel injector cleaner in it. But the car has always been able to do 70mph without stumbling, so doesn't that imply the fuel pump was good and the injectors were clean enough? I havent' tried to accelerate up a hill to that speed because I haven't seen any hills. |

What fuel are you running in it? Try a top tier fuel - preferably SHELL - (just my experience) for a few tanks and see what happens. You COULD have injector troubles. If you had semi-blocked injectors it would run lean. If one cleared and momentarily was jammed open, you could get a 2198 - and it could have cleared everything - stranger things have happened. |

Is carb cleaner going to work better than propane? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eMJ9bBlaE8 This guy used carb cleaner. No luck. But he found the leak with his hand. Well if it was good enough for him, I tried it a couple hours ago with the engine idling, after I cleared the codes I put my hand everywhere and couldn't feel any breezes. I also tried squeezing all the hoses. None of them felt mushy or seemed to be cracking, or seemed loose, or affected engine speed, and most look like new. (Especially the large pleated? corrugated? hose between the air cleaner and the plenum.) Then I got in the car and drove. In the past it took no more than 10 miles to set the codes and for a while it would do it in 1 or 2 minutes of idling. I forgot to look at pending codes until 6 miles out, and I had not only the 0171 and 0174, but I also had 2198!!! But after 4 more miles, there were no pending codes anymore, and no actual codes. And after 10 more miles to get home, still no codes. Plus, the engine doesn't seem to hesitate anymore, though maybe I learned how to accelerate to avoid that, and it's hard to go back to a style that was causing trouble. (If that's it, I"m sure over time, I'll revert to my old style.) There are a lot of hoses, but if this starts up again, I'll go through them more slowly and more deliberately Oh, I found out what p2198 means: "Stop squeezing my hoses." Code p2198 means" Stop squeezing my hoses or I will sue you for hosual harassment" Actually it means "O2 Sensor Signal Stuck Rich Bank 2 Sensor 1" https://www.yourmechanic.com/article...y-andrew-quinn and this reminds me that last night I sprayed the base of the B2S1 sensor with PB Blaster, since changing the sensor woudl be easier and changing the manifold gasket. I only sprayed where it screws in. I saw what got wet and the top didn't. How could spraying the base affect *any*thing? Especially since it was 20 hours earlier. If the codes come back after the stuff evaporates, I'll spray it again! Also should mention that I used the tank with Techron fuel injector cleaner in it, and yesterday I filled the tank and put a can of Sea Foam fuel injector cleaner in it. But the car has always been able to do 70mph without stumbling, so doesn't that imply the fuel pump was good and the injectors were clean enough? I havent' tried to accelerate up a hill to that speed because I haven't seen any hills. The Techron may have cleaned the injectors enough that they are no longer running lean That would be great. It's sometimes hard to believe the things you add to the gas tank can do that much, but even when I thought that, it was worth $20 or 30 for various injector cleaners compared to the alternatives. (I still have a bottle of the Autozone brand. It was by far the cheapest, $3 or 4.) - and it may have happened suddenly enough that it temporatily ran rich throwing the 2198. Huh! I wouldn't have thought of that. Might have been a problem with the FP regulator too - fixed by the Techron. Or that. Thanks. Barring the return of the codes, I think I'm a big believer in Techron now. |

The mechanic who looked at in March might have touched the same hose or whatever I touched. Actually, the CEL and the VSC and Trac*** lights were all on and they all went off a day or two after I bought the car. Then when I was playing with the transmission, putting it in first gear to go down a steep but short hill, the light went on and it's been on almost all of the time since then. ***The owners manual says that the Trac (Off) light will come on when the VSC light is on. But still, maybe I should have mentioned the other two lights. I apologize, although I was only hurting myself. I think this was a very good thread. Even if what I learned didn't directly fix the car, I still learned a lot. |

Well, just watching the readings should be sufficient. If you manage to block the leak or get propane into the leak instead of air or the like, the numbers will change immediately and obviously and then return back once you remove your hand or the propane torch from the leak. But you also know that the intake gaskets are bad, and if they aren't causing this problem, they are likely going to cause another. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

It applied to a very specific leak, at the shaft on the throttle body or air volume control, whatever you choose to call it. Did you check there? I checked everywhere. And I did read the TSB, and it is exactly my codes and my model car, but it also provided a list of VINs, of Production Change Effective VIN, a term I don't understand. But still I think mine isn't in the list. The 4th character and everything except the last 3 after that was different, so I figure it doesn't apply to me. It listed Camry 4T1BA3#K*4u502118 Solara 4T1CA3#K*4u017744 And I'm Solara 4T1FA38P55U044744 However I did spray carb cleaner where they said to, and nothing happened. I'd already tried propane all around there.

That tech bulletin said to watch short term fuel trim while doing the spray test. I gather that if the codes are cleared, when the code is set again, many scan tools including mine will take a freeze frame. But that's not the same as spraying and having the fuel trim change. How does a person notice that when he's alone? Put the scanner on the dash facing out? Anyhow, I'm going for a longer drive now with the scan tool attached. |
