No ideas on why but, you maybe able to clean it. Some old school hot rod guys told me a trick once upon a time about pulling the sensor and putting it in the freezer for 24 hours. Than tap it on some something to loosen the frozen sediment.

A CEL is not normal. What is the code you're getting for the CEL?

Find out exactly what the code is and I'll look it up in the service manual.

P0171 - fuel supply system too lean
I'm betting that you have a vacuum leak somewhere.

Posts from the intake gasket thread moved here. That being said, finding a vacuum leak is fairly easy if you have the tools for it. In the driveway without said tools, you could be hunting for hours. Since I assume all you did was install an intake, I'd check to make sure you didn't split the silicon coupler at the throttle body as that can cause your code.

A can of carb cleaner can help you find a vacuum leak. Just make sure you do it when your engine is cold.

So I installed the stock intake and the cel didn't come back. After driving for 2 days I put the intake back on, boom cel is on. I'm thinking it's cause of a $50 intake? I've read that the light gives no problems, but it just disappointing seeing the light on.

Is it an intake or an intake manifold?
