2001 ford taurus 3.0(2) codepo174, changed oxygen sensors and fuel filter code still comes up on memory

This code is usually caused by leaking intake manifold gasket on the front side. With the engine running, spray carb cleaner or ether on the gaskets. If the engine revs at all, you have a leaky gasket. If not, check for other vacuum leaks in anything attached to that side of the manifold. If you have more questions, please let me know.

Failed smog test because of fault code po174 : system too lean (bank 2) ford taurus 1998

Leak on the intake, bad EGR valve that's not closing. Perhaps a bad O2 sensor, but probably not. The O2 sensor is what detects a rich/lean condition. But when they fail they usually give their own error codes.

My check engine light is on its saying system too lean code Po174

How many miles are on the car? It could be one of three things.
1. Check vaccum lines running to the valve covers. The rubber nipple that connects to the valve cover sometimes gets a hole.
2. Could be 02 sensor depending if its lean on bank 1 or bank 2.
3. Also check DPFE hose's. Located on back of motor running from EGR valve exhuast tube.
