Default code P0171 and P0507....

Need some help here. I know what the codes mean but I cant locate the problem. No split hoses, etc...When I put it in park the RPMs are low (sputtering almost). Driving I get hesitation. Any ideas?

Coilpack starting to go? Do you have a CEL?

Default If it starts flashing, pull over into a nice spacious parking lot & wait for a tow truck

'cause you ain't goin' very far. Been there twice now. However, last time I performed the isolation test to see which one was bad. As a result, the first 3 CPs I pulled caused misfire codes due to my checking, & my dealer replaced all of them with the "R" revision under warranty! They even threw in a new fuel pump too (that I didn't even know was bad).

Default There are so many more possibilities than just coilpacks...

MAF being one of them.

Default This is not a first for me...I have had my fair share of coilpacks die.

Just have never had one failing. I can only hope that's what this is.

Default I understand that

But with the symptoms that you're describing, and the lack of any torn hoses, leads me to believe that that's what the cause is. I haven't had a MAF go on me yet so I'm not sure of the symptoms first hand

Default Ahh, I see.

Hopefully it is just a CP.
