"Lean Burn" OBD code on '98 F-150
I just purchased (at auction) a '98 F-150 Super Cab w/5.4L, 4wd and
automatic. 132K miles. Runs great and in excellent condition (aside from the "smoker" previous owner). Within a few miles I got a "Check Engine" light. Owners manual says to check OBD codes as soon as as possible. (still ok to drive) I had the local Auto Parts store read the codes and they gave two items. "Bank One Lean Burn" and "Bank Two Lean Burn". I suspected that it had recently been run out of gas since the fuel level was very low, until I made it to a gas station. I had the tech. clear the codes but the Check Engine light came back on within 50 miles. My next thought would be to check the fuel filter. I have no manuals yet and don't know where this filter would be located. Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Steve |

If it did not shut down then that does not pertain. >I had the tech. clear the codes but the Check Engine light came back on >within 50 miles. > >My next thought would be to check the fuel filter. Probably not unless it shuts down or bucks when giving it full throttle at highway speed. > I have no manuals yet and >don't know where this filter would be located. > >Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. Vaccum leak or dirty mass air flow sensor. Don www.donsautomotive.com >Steve > |
