SOURCE: Check Engine Light Problem

Codes that tell you your engine is running lean can be caused by a number of things. First thing to do (and cheapest) is to get some fuel injector cleaner and run it for awhile. Dirty injectors can cause these codes. I recommend lucas brand myself but there are several different cleaners to choose from. The second thing is checking your vacuum lines. If there is a leak it can cause the engine to **** in too much air and cause the codes. Anything beyond that gets into alot of mechanical work and should be done by a certified technician

I have a 2005 mercury Monterey van with a check engine light on. Autozone diagnosed either a mass air flow sensor or O2 sensor problem. I tried cleaning the air flow sensor with air flow sensor cleaner but...

If it is running lean, I'd check correct fuel pressure. Then check for a vacuum leak. 02 sensors are part of a tune-up. I don't like to replace parts unless I'm sure.

I can't rule out a maf sensor.

2004 chevy silverado 5.3L V8 runs rough and stalls

Well, code 336 is for a problem with the crank sensor, and code 171 is for fuel system too lean bank one which is the side with cylinder one. Since you have checked fuel pressure and I will assume fuel volume is good, the crank sensor or circuit could be at fault.
