John...
Still having the issue? Maybe we should meet up. I have fought this code once or twice and it doesn't scare me.

That would be great Bill, The car is inop right now since I sent the throttle body to Rock auto for a rebuild. My mech said it leaks. I expect it'll be back some time this coming week. So if you want next weekend might be good. I'm in New Fairfield aka No Funfield!. After all that work code came right back.

Bandit it's going to come back on again. I think the MIL is just mocking me now!

okay guys here we go again and a great bignow. absolutely 0 vacuum leaks an accomplishment in itself, smoke tested, new MAF, new EGR tube, new positive battery cable clean and sprayed all connections for both cables and a new O2 sensor installed yesterday. prior to the o2 stft was about 20% now we are looking at a 0 to a slightly negative number at idle to when you give it some gas about 2800RPM or so. Don't remember the LTFT but i dont think it was crazy number. This morning all monitors were set and I was on my way home to get inspected and about 65 miles in it lit up again with this f'in code. I did drive it a little hard but should that matter? Anybody got anything else? I'm really at the end of my rope here.

Where did you get the egr tube from ?Any tricks to replacing it ? Mine is reacting to the carb cleaner and I have also been chasing p0171 ?Originally Posted by falconjohnd

Ordered mine from the dealer, I think it was about $12.00 but really not sure it was inexpenxive though. Makes your life easier if you take the throttle body off but you don't have to. You will need to use a 1/4 in drive with an extension to remove the retaining bolt from the intake. Exhaust crossover is reight there and a 3/8 drive will be too fat. Other than that it's pretty straightforward. I still have my code to this day.... It mocks me!!!!

I guess I'm joining the bandwagon.... My car just started spewing this code
11-28-2011
John... did you get that second cable?
11-29-2011
Not fun!

Haven't had the chance ive had some other issues to attend to.... Actually going to have surgery on Monday. I did find another vacuum hose that was bad and changing it made the light go out for about a day and half.

Nice... Good luck on the surgery, and remember not to scratch at your stitches.
11-30-2011
No stitches it's in my eye!!! Thanks for the good wishes.
11-30-2011
I've had surgery there too... corrective surgery.
Either way..hope it all goes good for you. Stock up on the safety glasses.
12-01-2011
Yes I think I remember you said you did the Lasik..... Thanks and I will keep you posted!

that really Charlie Sheem or are you his brother?? Front sway bar any idea where I can get one?

There was one hanging on my wall until Wed night. That's when Bandits GranPrix came and picked up an AC bracket. While we chatted he mentioned his bar was broken. Well..that bar was spare when I changed a bar for another guy. Told him if he left it..it would go to a good home for free. Just didn't want to see it get thrown out.
Your best bet..call around and get a 2000+ Monte bar. That's the GMPP, but from a yard..up here it's usually $10
