Due to my ongoing battle with the dreaded P0170 (System Too Lean) CEL code, I haven't been able to pass emissions testing in Virginia. Last Friday, I reset my ECU by disconnecting the battery. I drove very little during the weekend, and hurried in to a testing center before the CEL could return. Passed emissions and registered the car today (current registration expires July 31). CEL is expected to return shortly, as the car is still running like crap.
I'm hoping to meet up with Damian (boostdprotegelx) soon and replace the intake manifold gasket, replace the IAC valve body, and check the wga and exhaust for any leaks that might be there.
If none of these fixes the problem, I don't know what else to do but go insane. I've replaced just about every ignition, electrical, emissions, fuel, and air-intake related part and/or sensor that could possibly be related to the issue.
I'll keep everyone posted.
