Best Answer

Assuming you mean P0171, it is a lean condition Bank 1. If the engine is running okay I would look for a vacuum leak around the engine, maybe a vacuum hose disconnected or cracked. If the engine is running poorly it could be a plugged fuel filter, a faulty fuel pressure regulator or a faulty fuel pump.
