171 and 174 are lean conditions - if you have no leak between maf and throttle body, recommend checking fuel conditions - pump working, fuel to fuel rail, injectors to start

I had the same codes...checked everything and still there. Changed the MAFS and all problem solved. The MAFS has a hotwire in it and they do wear out.
