    Means you need a new oxygen sensor usually. That or you have a dirty injector that is bleeding off pressure. Best way to check the injector is to get an external fuel pressure gauge and hook it to the fuel rail. Turn on the key until the fuel pressure stabilizes....about 58 lbs. Turn off the ignition and see if it bleeds down pressure. It should hold within a couple pounds.
