Hey guys, ive had a check engine for p0171 lean code, and this morning I started my 06 ss/sc and the idle was kind of jumping and my vacuum on the boost gauge was at 15...its usually at 20...so is this all a part of a vacuum leak or something else? Thank you.

 

prbly a leak ... check everything !!!! if you have never changed any of the hoses, there definitely cracked by now so replace them.

If your close to SK Speed they have tons of hoses.


pull your intake out and inspect for any holes, put it back in and make sure every hose clap is tight and there are no leaks, also check to make sure the o-ring is on the MAF.

 

Ok I will, and sk is like 30m from me im in Franklin Square. Thank you

 

just go to autoozone or Advance and get some new hoses if needed then.

 

Ok Ill take a look at everything. A friend of mine suggested I spray starter fluid around areas that may be leaking, and if the revs go up it means thats where the leak is. would that help?

 

i wouldnt go spraying that **** all over your engine.

jut replace your hoses.

 

How many hoses are they, Is there any diagram on here regarding the vacuum hoses?

 

I sprayed a bit of the starter fluid and it immediately rose in rpms, I can hea r it too, right in the middle/top of the blower where its attached to the engine...can it be possible that there's a gap or somethig between the blower and the engine where it sits on? Thanks
