MEVI installed, running lean? HELP

MEVI is installed, everything works great, engine runs great. However I am now getting the 0115 code, fuel injection system lean (right bank). The sticky indicated it could be 1 of 7 things.

- Intake air leaks
- Defective Front Heated Oxygen Sensor
- Fuel injectors
- Exhaust gas leaks
- Incorrect fuel pressure
- Lack of fuel
- Faulty Mass Air Flow Sensor

Upper manifold is torqued to spec, everything is lined up properly. If i had a leak wouldnt the engine run like crap?

I'm pulling vacuum from the FRP, if that matters

Anyone have a problem like this?

Thanks in advance

Running lean is a very bad thing and can cause engine damage prettty fast...Try reseting the code and see if it comes back..

In the mean time check the vaccum pressure with a gauge..I dont know off hand what the gauge is called but any local auto parts store will have it...

I reset the ECU and the code went away, and has not come back, phew. I guess it came on because I beat the **** out of the engine right after I got the VI working, weird.

The VI ROCKS, now its time for an ECU. I wish Technosquare would come out with a raised rev version of their ECU already.

I've been trying with Techno but I'm just about ready to send that project out to pasture and sell my ECU (which they currently have).
