Now the check engine light is on because the old error was stored in the memory and it need to be cleared. So, I purchased today actron cp 9575 autoscanner. After a scan I got p0171 and p0174 codes.
A code P0171 and P0174 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

The MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor is dirty or faulty.
There could be a vacuum leak downstream of the MAF sensor.
I made a reset and cleared all the codes that were stored. After that I tested and drove the car for a long distances. All's clear. The check engine never came back again.
Way to go!
