Don't you have an SAFC or something like that? If yes, how about you rip that thing out and try like that. The stuff you have shouldn't cause a lean condition.

Where are you getting your A/f readouts from? A tail pipe probe, or your safc?

A tail pipe probe could be thrown off by small leaks along the way.

Patience, of course, is a very powerful weapon, but sometimes I start to regret that it is not a firearm.
Too much time spent here is a sign of a bad case of Ownaneonvirus.

Most likely not an accurate reading.
