Here's part of the manual,maybe it can help.Also,did you check your MAF sensor,maybe your filter got over-oiled.Try cleaning that 1st.

LOL didn't see the update post... replyed to your PMbut anywasy.did you happen to notice that it happened at WOT or in LIFT? if so it probley caused the air fuel mixture to become very lean and caused the code. Try clearing it if you haven't already and see if it comes back. If it does I would suggest that you check for air leaks on the intake. Also as Kev asked have you recently cleaned your air filter? A clogged filter could cause it so could an over oiled filter
