The powertrain control module (PCM) tries to rectify the lean state by pumping more fuel into the mixture to maintain the proper 14.7:1 ratio. Code P0174 shows up when these modifications become too large.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">So, what is code P0174?
