    Not much working on it just have a 3' lift with HID lights still more to do....
    Am getting a code reading of PO171 -system too lean Bank 1, P0174 -system to lean Bank 2 and P0420 -Catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 1. My 2006 V6 4.0L Tacoma has 235,000 miles on it. does it sound like i have to replace my manifold? or can it be something else i have a smog check coming soon.

    P0171, P0174 problem areas:
    • Air induction system
    • Injector blockage
    • Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter
    • Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor
    • Fuel pressure
    • Gas leakage from exhaust system
    • Open or short in A/F sensor (bank 1, 2 sensor 1) circuit
    • A/F sensor (bank 1, 2 sensor 1)
    • A/F sensor heater (bank 1, 2 sensor 1)
    • A/F sensor heater relay
    • A/F sensor heater and A/F sensor heater relay circuits
    • PCV valve and hose
    • PCV hose connections
    • ECM

    P0420 problem areas:
    • Gas leakage from exhaust system
    • A/F sensor (bank 1 sensor 1)
    • HO2 sensor (bank 1 sensor 2)
    • Exhaust manifold (TWC)

    I would first make sure the MAF is working and that I had no vacuum leaks, PCV System is good and the exhaust system is not leaking. These are all common areas for this issue.
