B0011 Pontiac 28 code definition:
B0011 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic B-Body Diagnostic Trouble Code for Pontiac 28.
B0011 Pontiac 28 shows up when there's an electrical problem that causes the fuel volume regulator to malfunction and open. It's quite an unusual problem and likely intermittent. The spark should have a light tan color. If the sensor probe comes with white and chalky parts, this means it has been lagging between switching phases, and should be replaced.
Symptoms
Symptoms of a B0011 Pontiac 28 diagnostic trouble code may include:
- Faulty or damaged wiring
- The engine oil will exhibit dilution from the ECUs attempts to increase engine temperature. Some vehicles advance the fuel injection timing slightly after top center to afterburn a small amount of fuel to increase exhaust temperatures. Some of this fuel enters the crankcase. When the ECU determines the necessity to regenerate the DPF, the service life of the oil be shortened significantly
- Poor fuel economy
- If the DPF is not cleared the ECU will revert to the "Limp Home Mode" until the situation is corrected

Possible Causes :
- A large air leak at or near the number one oxygen sensor would also cause a lean mixture.
- Faulty IMRC actuator relay (if equipped)
- A large vacuum leak would cause a massive amount of un-metered air to enter the intake manifold resulting in an overly lean mixture.

Repair Processes :
It should be pretty close to battery voltage (12 volts). If not, then this is the circuit that has the problem.
