Default Code po174

Ok.........put the stones down,lol, no stones to be thrown because of the next sentence:

I used the Sea Foam "fogger" on the wifes RX and now I get the reoccurring: PO174 System Too Lean(Bank 2)

Ok, maybe I used bad judgement on the Seafoam. I haven't "searched" on here if many members are using the "fog" to clean upper cylinders, but I did and WOW....I killed a bunch of bugs. The EPA showed up at my door and told me that after they shut down all coal powered power plants, eliminate diesels, they are going to fine me $5 million for what I did to the environment.....

I am thinking after a good MAS cleaning this code might go away, but any thoughts or comments?

Thanks
Okie

Bugger, I like that. I might have to start using that one(l have lost 50lbs so maybe I am a bug and not bigger). I checked everything out and couldn't find any hoses off or loose. I had planned to clean the MAS(I hope I am spelling that correctly, MassAirflowSensor) but I erased it twice and it hasn't come back in. Only time will tell. I appreciate the help and replies. If it comes back in, I will post.

Thx again
BuggerOkie, shoot I mean BiggerOkie😉

Thx
