P0171 and P0015 intermittently

Question

Not only am I getting p0171 but intermittently car is hard to start and I get addition code of p0015.P0015 only shows up when car is hard to start. Pumps of the gas pedal gets it started.

Answer 1

P0015 is a straight repair where the cause is the camshaft actuator solenoid, and as a rule you replace it in pairs P0015 is for the exhaust valve timing and you would do the intake OCV as well. P0015 there no need to set a P0171 which is a lean code condition. Toyota has a TSB about this code its for a P0015 and a P0017 check the TSB out
