Engine running lean? Not idling worth a damn? Vacuum leaks are the most likely culprit. A leak is usually pretty easy to fix yourself with something as simple as a roll of electric tape. Finding them is the problem.

I recently purchased this product off Amazon and I am going to to give you an honest review and demonstration. This review is not sponsored.

Common DTC for for a lean condition would be P0171, P2172 and P2173. Honda programming could produce P0505 which indicates an idle air control malfunction but the problem is actually a vacuum leak. Keep that in mind before loading up the parts cannon!

There are many ways to "skin the cat" and these are the methods that I use. Any criticisms or alternate methods posted in the comments are welcome, just keep it civil.
