no wonder....
regear to 4.56 approx $1800-$2200 for 4wd half that for 2wd
take that washoobi intake off and do the gotts mod or get custom tunes from PHP for that edge pos canned tunes you're running....

No..........this is a KNOWN ISSUE with CAI and Edge. You need to ditch the CAI, return to stock, or get custom tunes. The mechanic doesn't know what he's talking about.
If it's a P0171 and/or P0174, YES, it's running lean BECAUSE you have a CAI and are using an Edge with a CANNED tune. Keep running it lean and you will start burning valves and pistons.
There are 3 ways to fix this:
1. Get CUSTOM tunes.
2. REMOVE the CAI.
3. Return the tune to STOCK.
