It would be helpful if you quoted previous posts so people know what kind of
symptoms the car has and what year, model, mileage, the car is.

P0171 means that the system for Bank 1 is too lean. The most common cause
of this condition is an O2 sensor that is only marginally working. A
competent technician can check the O2 sensor output and confirm this.
