I just had Sears do an oil change and change my plugs at ~96k w/ Iridium and Platinum plugs. I am now getting the P0171 error when I didn't before.
P0171 DTC: System Too Lean
I guess I'll check my K&N and then call Sears.

Next: If sears did not use AC Delco plugs, then you just wasted $$ on having them put in crap that will be fried in short order. This has been said here and at other Hummer, Colorado and Canyon forums before: If you have an I5 do not use anything but AC Delco plugs or you are asking for trouble.

First: This thread is OLD.

I still am getting the error though.
I noticed people were saying to look at the intake, MAF, etc. The fat foam seal that goes out to the firewall seems fine and the intake box where my K&N is seems fine.
I did notice that there's a hose up near the hinge of my engine that was just sitting there. "1/2 GM6148-M 090505 AGB'. It seems like it could be the air intake vacuum line. Whether it's actually from my car or not we'll see but I think it's likely the culprit as people were saying it's possibly a vac leak.
Does this hose look familiar to anyone?
it's pretty strange as the car seems to run ok.

All I did was use Search. It's not like I spent hours digging thru old posts. Anyways, I did have Search swap out the plugs for AC Delco Iridium.

K&Ns also have a rep for cracking, cracks leak.
The intake manifold bolts that fasten it the head have been known to vibrate loose and cause a leak.

That hose was from the stock intake (underneath rear of the resonator box) to the breather port at the rear of the valve cover. Whoever put on your K&N must have left it there.
