p0172 System running too rich
So out of the middle of nowhere I get a check engine light that says that I am running too rich. This is a little strange since my car is programmed to run about .25% lean. Is there a common fix to this? Not sure if the MAF sensor is dirty or if my injectors are leaking or what.

Flash to stock and re-load your tune. Ive had the same thing happen. It should go away. Might take a couple of flashings

Hard to tell... Could be an error or nothing at all. I normally do a reset and see if it pops up again. I've gotten several errors before, did a reset and it never happened again. Sometimes when the weather changes, for example get cool real quick, the computer won't adjust / learn quick enough.
If I remember... you do have a custom tune correct? I'm assuming you do...
