@rumerboyz pull your air filter . . . if not heavy do a light see thru test . . .air filter not a problem . . . check you injectors . . .bet number 1 cyclinder has a problem injectod . . . 2005 is likely closer to 100 K miles.

I have a 2005 ford 5.4 Gas superduty with 21,450 miles and my check engine light is on. The code says p0174 running Too lean. Could it be the MAF sensor? Do you know of a common problem with this on these trucks? Any help would be great.

these expert village videos are a good idea and all, if only they wernt done by such a bunch of douchbags. I hate the way most of em are done in 100 parts, and most of them really dont tell you anything
