That means that the engine is running lean. Could be caused by a bad fuel pump, dirty injectors, vacuum leak, or pcv or egr valve.

Another thing to change is the fuel filter.
Put some fuel injector cleaner in there, change the fuel filter out, erase the codes and if you still have the same problem....you need to check the fuel pump voltage and psi on teh fuel rails....make sure it ain't going out on ya.
