Hi well in december of 2011 i cracked my cylinder heads and bought a pair off ebay from j&c enterprises. When i got them in they looked great and got them installed while in the process of installing them my mechanic said that the heads were shaved a little too much. But it wasnt really a problem so he went on with the install and then after he finshed he told me that the intake didnt sit right because of the heads but he fixed it. After a month i got the a cel for P0171 &P0174 and he said it was a leak on the intake so he replaced the gaskets and re torqued them. Another Month Passed and now i have the leak again but now hes saying its the heads and i got to switch em out. I'm hoping someone can help me out in this forum that had this problem because i think hes trying to rip me off. thanks
 






See the recent post PO174.

There is a link to some excellent diagnostic tests. This should possibly help you solve the problem yourself.
