Clogged injectors, bad fuel filter, bad fpr, bad gas would be my areas to look at. Can you check the fuel pressure? Inpa can read it.
Hey slick thank you again. will take another freeze frame at next code. I will meanwhile drive it to my indy to check filter and injectors as the risolane does its thing.

Np. I think you may actually have a true lean condition. At your mileage the fuel filter should be a given. Lean is better than rich as far as destroying your cats. I would do that no matter what.

Should I make an attempt to remove the filter myself or take it straight to my indy?

Thanks.

I've been running the car and idling it for 5-10 mins at a time. Noticing some very very white smoke at engine idle temp (96 C)... Should I be concerned? CCV?

p2096 still pending.

It is actually fairly easy. Search the forum, a lot of people did their own fuel filter. I did.

Have you ever done your CCV? Could be a source of your unmetered air.

If your going to run a fuel system cleaner, I recommend Amsoil P.i. (support the Xoutpost sponsor lol) or Redline Sl-1. The P.i. also acts as a UCL and if you do 2 bottles before an oil change it will actually do a heavy duty cleaning of the whole system. Also lubricates pump and aids in complete fuel combustion.
