OK,
I've had this code for a while now ( p0171). The light is on constantly never goes off even right at start up its on. Originally everyone said primary o2. I replaced that and still no luck. Also car has recent (within 5k miles of when code started) tune up including plugs, wires, disty cap, fuel filter etc etc. The car seemed to idle kind of rough almost like it wants to stall but when I'm driving it seems fine. My fuel mileage has dropped to low 20s a gallon. Also I can smell gas through the vents when I have my heat or A/C on. I do have the Honda shop manual and have looked at the flow chart for this code but I dont have some of the tools required to do the diag ( like a fuel press guage or a vacuum pump to check the EVAP purge control solenoid valve) . I am wondering if anyone has experienced these same symptoms and if so what corrected it. I need to get my car inspected and it won't pass with a cel.
