Had Engine Code P0171, cleaned the MAF Sensor & That got rid of the code P0171. My problem now is new codes: P0125; P1135: P1130. Need any information on these and a possible fix. There is an engine misfire under load & at cruise. I feel that the engine miss could be connected to the PO125 or could be plug wires or plugs. Need help.

    P0125 indicates that the engine controller thinks that the engine is running cold, like if the thermostat was out of calibration or stuck open. Could also be a failed Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor, the engine could be running at the right temp but the controller thinks it's running at -40degreesF and setting the fuel and spark accordingly.
    P1130 indicates that the controller detects an AIR/FUEL sensor (A/F = oxygen sensor, basically) heater control malfunction.
    P1135 indicates an AIR/FUEL sensor range/performance malfunction.
    Misfire at cruise could be caused by the engine running too cool and a failed A/F sensor would make it worse.

    Most likely the P1130 and P1135 are due to a failed AIR/FUEL sensor but it could be in the wiring or connectors so it's a good idea to check the sensor and circuit to be sure you need a new sensor before you replace it. I see a list price of about $220 for the A/F sensor..
