    My check engine light came on and freaked me out. Found out the code was P0171: Bank running lean. I currently have a mix of gas and E85 in the tank and the computer doesn’t like it. Nothing is actually wrong.

      Mine was a loose gas cap. I’m not paying $300 to a dealer to turn that light off.

        You can buy a cheap Bluetooth OBDII scanner online and use a free phone app like Torque to read and clear codes.

        I think most chain auto part stores will also let you use their scanners for free.
