He didn't tell me the codes. He just said it came up that the engine is running somewhat lean. And said a sensor is probably wet or dirty, O2 or Mass air. Sorry I don't have much detail

Well if he cleared it, and it comes back, ask for the code itself this time round. If it said lean then it may be actually the opposite, because it tells you what the computer is doing to compensate to correct the actual problem.(IE it is actually maybe running rich.) Won't know for sure till you get the actual code though. If it doesnt come back however, it was probably a wet sensor like the guy said.
