    OT 2002 Oldsmobile Trouble Code

    First off its not a gas cap, a gas cap sets a evap fault code, a PO440/442. A lean mixture on one bank of a V type of engine indicates a lean mixture on one bank only. Most likely is a intake vacume leak, if you have access to a scan tool check the fuel trim numbers (long and short term) compare...
