p0174 Jeep System Too Lean (Bank 2)

First thing I would do is look at the injectors and oxygen sensors, or at least the bank2 sensor.
Thats what its pointing at right now.

it could be a few things.
clogged fuel filter.. cheapest and easiest thing to fix.plus if you havnt replaced it recently might be a good idea...
your map not maf could be messed up.. but they usually run rich when these go bad.. but dont rule it out
it could also be the o2 sensor is messed up
the 3 usual culprits are listed hope it points you in the right direction

ya actually no chrysler has a maf, and p0174 i think is bank 2 lean and by the look of your intake and the heat shield around the injectors yours is a 00-01 so you back three cylinders are lean and i would say to replace th 2/1 o2 sensor but i cant guarantee anything

The term bank normally refers to cylinder heads.(ex....bank 1, left side head... bank 2, right cylinder head)

Inline engines only have 1 bank, so the correct labeling would be bank 1/sensor 1 for pre-cat and bank 1 sensor 2 for post cat.

It's just incorrect wording in the code

That's fine if you want to label like that. But the person I originally corrected said that bank 2 is a downstream O2 sensor

ok i c ya they only have bank 1 downstream its a pretty screwed up system on the 00-01s just because they kept trying to get it to pass emissions, o and then to make things clear to the guy fixing the problem 2/1 is the sensor right below the cat closest to the firewall
