I would have to ask you what mods you are running on your car. A lean trouble code could be caused by multiple things... ie. bad 02 sensor, air intake, MAF sensor dirty, throttle body dirty, throttle position sensor bad, or in general you just need a tune.

My car had a SEVERE problem with running lean. it eventually got so bad that I overheated the engine and went into limp mode (engine power reduced mode). I had to get it tuned and all its parts looked at. Don't wait to get that to point. Lean is not good for our engines since they are aluminum, running lean and hotter could hurt them over time.

our cars don't have fuel filters, they have a magic fuel fairy that never gets tired!

even if it didn't have the fuel fairy, why in the world would anyone want to spend a couple of bucks and a couple of minutes of time to swap out something like a "fuel filter"?

Both codes contradict each other..... If ur bypass valve is stuck open meaning bypass solonoid then u need to replace it..... I say ure solonoid will fix both issues just me tho
