:SNSign: Please try and help me figure this out.
My car has a hard time starting. After a few turns it will fire up, but it will sputter at a real low rpm before it gets better. After that it will idle fine. Maybe within the next minute the idle will jump up and back down again and after that it will run just fine. I ran the codes and got the 556 and 172 wich is "system lean bank 1" Both of the codes could be related to the same cause. I have an idea that it might be the relay. I think this might be it because once the car starts to turn over a few times it will build oil pressure and the fuel pump will supply. But the primary is not priming. My main questing is... Where is this relay and what does it look like. Any of you have photos.. From searching different sites I found out that it might me in the little black box that hangs off of the coolant resarvoir. Is this correct? If so , do you just open the black box and find the realys inside? Any help? please
