So one of my sons bought a used GMC Canyon 3.5 I5 a week ago. He had to put gas in it the same day he bought it. Truck was fine for the first 100 or so miles. About 50 miles after the fuel stop the CEL lit. He has a code reader and said it was Lean fuel mixture bank 1. I figured it might be the gas cap or MAF or maybe a loose vacuum line. Before we could meet up to start a diagnoses he needed gas again and filled up. The CEL went out and has been out for the last 80 miles. He had checked the gas cap right after the CEL first lit and said it looked fine and was tight.
So my question for you guys is could low grade fuel trigger a CEL for one tank of fuel or do you think it is something else? I have heard of this happening but never seen it happen myself.
