P0171 o2 Sensor code clearing: (Car has mods)
P0171 o2 Sensor code clearing: (Car has mods)
Hey guys, I decided to add to my Nissan collection this weekend and picked up a 2006 g35c in good condition. I also own a 1973 Datsun 240z that I am in the process of restoring and a 2002 Sentra.
The seller of the G told me that the car has been throwing a P0171 error. He replaced the o2 sensor but it keeps occurring.
Since buying the car and driving it 800 miles home, here's what I know. I averaged 23mpg, the car was not running hot during the trip. I also tried resetting the ecu but the check engine light appeared when I started the car afterwards.
I have a feeling that I am running lean since the car has an intake, headers, catback exhaust and race cats and-no ecu tuning has been done. (which sounds like a terrible idea, but I am not too fluent with this engine and the stock tune yet, so what do I know.)
Anyway, I am posting here looking for possible solutions. From what I have read so far, I should try cleaning the maf and looking for vacuum leaks. How likely is it that the stock tune is the problem?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks, that's what I was hoping to hear. What is the best way to tune these cars? What are my options?
