running lean
#16
if the idle is stable no matter the RPM then most likely u dont have a vacuum leak. G's stock idle is very low and has nothing to do with it being lean or rich. A/F ratio changes on every single RPM anyway. Take it to a reputable shop by asking your local board members and let them diagnose the problem. Ticking sound is most likely from the drive belts.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!
went to another shop and told me the problem was that too much hot air was getting into my fujita short ram intake and it damaged my maf sensor. sooo i went home reinstalled the plastic part that directs cold air to the intake, ordered a heat shield, and ordered a new maf sensor from rock auto. today, i drive to school and the light was on so i was really hoping that the new maf sensor would come in, but on the drive home guess what? NO LIGHT! and the mpg shoots up from 14mpg to 20+ but im not sure what i should do now. should i plug in my obd2 reader again and see if everythings fine? should i return the new maf sensor i ordered?? any thoughts??
