OK before everyone tells me to search, I have. I've also found a scanned page from a service manual and I have a Chilton's manual. I am an experienced tech and I know what I'm doing (so I thought.)
Anyway the list of causes for this P0170 Fuel trim malfunction DTC is:
MAF sensor - Tested ok replaced with a spare one, DTC came back.
Injector - Tested OK replaced all 4, DTC came back.
Intake leak - Pressure tested to find one VERY small leak at TB shaft
have not replaced o-rings yet but I don't think that's it.
Fuel PSI - OK 41 psi base
Coolant temp sensor - OK shows 199* when needle is straight up.
Intake air temp sensor - OK shows 45* on a 35* day.
Baro sensor - OK shows 13.9 (normal)
Exh. manifold cracks - None found.
02 Sensor - Damn Snap-on scanner reads very slow, might be the problem but I would expect a 02 code.
As soon as the CEL comes on the car hesitates on hard acceleration, under boost. Does anyone have access to a "flow chart" for this code? Or any input on what fixed your's?
Sorry for this long post but this CEL is getting on my nerves.
