So, just a heads up to all of those that are watching. GM issued a TSB #05-06-04-029A for this problem. All vehicles from 99-05 with the 4.8L, 5.3L or 6.0L are prone to this issue. The bulletin states that it is very common to see lean codes P0171 & P0174 TOGETHER, and also a possible missfire code. The catch to this is that GM also changed the gasket material to help fix this problem, and they state that the updated ones are supposed to be teal green, and to not use the orange ones again.

Did the computer throw a too lean code?

@duelingpianos2 Nice Video! Good Info!!! How long did it took you guys to take off and replace the intake manifold?

Those ridges on the old gasket that where totally flat, went flat the second the manifold was torqued down at the factory

Hey there, the symptoms were massive "bucking" of the truck when I'd press the accelerator. Instead of acceleration and power when you press the gas pedal, the truck would lurch forward and then most times stall out. This happened on the highway a few times and then the power steering and brakes both went out too. Very unsetteling!
