It's unlikely both of your O2s would go bad at the same time. Get a fuel pressure gauge and check your fuel pressure at the rail. Sounds to me like your fuel pump may be going out, causing a lean condition.

It could also be a MAF problem, but it is most likely to do with fuel pressure when both codes are set like that.

i read the codes and the 2 codes that came up are PO174 bank 2 running lean.

i did research and people say its either the maf, fuel filter clogged or fuel pump.

im going to put in my walbro 255 pump that i had in my formula and change the fuel filter and see if that solves the problem
