hooahh3 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Ok guys, need some ideas here. Got the 5.3 (2005 w/4l60e) running and driving but its giving me P0171 and P0174 codes; Both banks lean. The tourqe app im using also picked up cylinder 1, 7, & 8 misfires ranging from 14-24 times. It will run great, but if I get on it hard or floor it and let off, it pops and shoots me some flames out the exhaust (both very considerably!) then throws the codes Ive changed knock sensors and that code is gone Swapped in good MAF sensor and that went away (new one of those bought tomorrow) Done a TB gasket Checked Fuel pressure at rail. Holding at 60+ psi for full throattle range ( only parked though, not able to check while driving) Tried to spray for any leaks and couldn't find any vacuum leaks At this point im down to swapping around those 3 coils, will swap the wires around too if that doesn't give me anything, or then swapping the injectors around. Run a compression test next if that doesn't work. Im about 80% certain the lean condition is coming from those missfires Has anyone had and fixed this problem with something other then what I have/will try? Im kinda out of ideas if the coils/injectors/compression doesn't turn up anything. Unfortuantly ls1tech crashes on my browser so im SOL on that wealth of knowledge. Cant read shit when its freezing and reloading every 3 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aero Z Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Use the Torque app to also monitor what your 02 sensors are reading as you get on the throttle. If they're not working correctly it could affect it. i would suspect only one (not throw both codes) would quit though instead of both at the same time. Something to maybe eliminate as the problem.

hooahh3 Posted May 10, 2017 Author Share Posted May 10, 2017 I can read the voltage for them both but not the actual AFR. There new stock type narrow bands. Im just trying figure out what could throw both banks off together, always both banks. Maybe two bad O2 sensors, both purchased brand new for this engine though.

hooahh3 Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 ok so i've basically narrowed it down to when it's wheel driving the engine. Any coasting that put the engine being driven by the back tires, really bad down hill. So that would put it on the i take and exhaust system right? Both are very free flowing and it's just sucking in more air then the computer can compensate for on a stock tune during coasting and engine braking. Right??? Seem to be re thinking every thing i thought i knew here with this damn problem. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinhZXT Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Who did the wiring for you? Check the coil signal wires at the ECU to make sure they are correct based on the YEAR of the ECU. I did my own wiring before and different year had different wiring diagram for the coil signal wires. I had this same problem when I did my conversion long time ago.

hooahh3 Posted June 16, 2017 Author Share Posted June 16, 2017 I did the re wiring on it. well i stripped down the stick harness and cleaned it up. The PCM is different then the original, had to get one that's run DBC. So i'll check that out, i did swap around two coils to T/S the miss' sand so far it seems to be good. Still pops on decel though. i just haven't had time to mess with it lately. Transmission has been getting all the attention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
