What is your question?
Light came on, stayed on about 1 week, went off for 2 weeks, then back on again. Car runs no differently. Fuel gauge has been irratic for several months. Code first appeared a snap shot showed that short term fuel trim on bank # 1 was 0.8 and LT fuel trim on bank #1 was 8.6. ST fuel trim on bank #2 was 0.0 and LT fuel trim on Bank #2 was 16.4. Fault occured at 48 mph. What is wrong please? What else can be checked?

bank 2 senses a lean condition. the code sets when long term is above 8% within a set of parameters. look for vaccuum leaks around bank 2, a bad pcv valve, mass air flow or fuel delivery issue. recomend you have a shop track it down and give you a bid as it is not an easy diag unless you find something very obvious.

For your code, you can try: In the vast majority of cases, simply cleaning the MAF sensor does the trick. Consult your service manual for it's location if you need help. I find it's best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake cleaner. Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make sure it's dry before reinstalling Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace if necessary Check for a dirty fuel filter and proper fuel pressure
