Unhappy Code PO171 and PO174

My dreaded Service Engine Light has come on. I had the car scanned and it is indicating a "Lean Condition" on Bank 1 and Bank 2.. Anybody have an idea as to what is causing the the lean condition? Thanks

Low fuel pressure would be one possible cause. Have you noticed any weakness or missing at higher RPM/high load? Have you checked the fuel pressure?

Thanks for the replies. I have already cleaned the MAF. Service Engine Light still comes on. I have not checked the fuel pressure, but I have no stumbling or sluggishness at high RPM. If the fuel pressure was low, what would cause this? fuel pressure regulator??

Weak pump, dirty filter.

Have you checked the inlet bellows for a tear? Any chance you have a large vacuum leak?
