THE 02 sensors is stuck lean. at 0v. the ECU
goes max rich in this case. (compensates) 173 means ECU slammed rich due to 02 reading gross lean.
lots of causes.:
1: a bad 02 , say stuck at 0volts. ( over 100k miles they can to that)
2: exhaust leaks{cracks} near 02. and stuck at 0volts
3: dead or weak, or dirty MAF, causing illegal unmetered air. lean.
4: intake air system has gross air leak.

Having accleration issues mostly going up hills. Just replaced fuel filter.

The knock sensor is famous for causing all sorts of trouble If you have a code for it, it probably needs to be replaced.

It could be a faulty sensor, valve or blockage in the EGR (tube) from a carbon buildup.

in some cases it may be a problem with the ecu

I have a few error codes for my 2004 dodge ram hemi 1500 4x4. they are po172, po300, and po304.

The p0172 is due to an O2 sensor in the exhaust seeing too much oxygen, the po300 is a missfire present and p0304 is cylinder #4 missfire, check plug and wire to #4 and repair, this should also take care of the p0172, if a cylinder is missing it is just pump air into the exhaust thus causing the code p0172.

P0171 indicates a lean condition. The most common cause of this is a defective mass air flow sensor. Also check if any vacuum leaks.Replace MAf sensor,if cleaning the MAF does not help.
OBD II P0172 Fuel System Too Rich (Bank 1).P0172 - System Too Rich (Bank 1) Essentially this DTC means that an oxygen sensor in bank 1 detected a rich condition.
When the code says that the Fuel System is "too rich," it means that the computer has been subtracting more and more fuel, which is called Long Term Fuel Trim. Ideally, the Long Term Fuel Trim should be close to 1 to 2 percent. When a code P0172 is set, it means that the Fuel Trim is anywhere from -15 percent to as low as -30 percent compensated. When this happens, the computer knows that there is an improper condition in the control of the Fuel System.


Thanks.
