Obd Ii Codes P1124 P1126

[TechArtBox]

I recently had a secondary air injection problem, the engine light came back on and now I have the codes P1124 and P1126. I was also told that the car is now running lean. Anyone have some insight on this? I admit, I just got this car (97 boxster, 99 motor installed) and I don't know sh*t about it. The mechanic told me the car is running lean and could be a MAF problem. But he also said he wants to check for vacuum leaks. If it is the MAF anyone now where I can get a good price on them?, I know the price went up again recently. Also, whats the diff between the normal sensor and the e-accelerator? Is that for the S? Sorry, like I said, I'm a clueless newbie.

Do a search on MAF there are a few extensive threads with part numbers, prices and History.

what is the problem? just CEL is on? or is the car running different? if it is than please explain how?

You can start by reading this thread to familiarize yourself on the MAF topic :lightbulb:

I had the same codes come on my car (97 986) after I bought it used a couple of months ago. I was able to fix by changing the fuel filter and have the injectors cleaned (ultrasonic; not DIY). The protocol for these codes is to check the intake (air) system, check fuel pressure and check fuel volume delivery.
