Ok it looks like it is normal behavior for LTFT to fluctuate between +/- 3%. I believe the car is trying to compensate for the lean and rich conditions. Ultimately, I do see that this value balanced at 0% (or near it) at the end of the drive. I think the issue resolved itself...

Wow I've never seen anything like this before. I reset the ECU and after driving 25 miles the check engine light came up with the same code P0171 & pending P0170 - long term fuel trim peaked at 18.75.

That is great to hear! Maybe the check engine light coming on after my valve adjustment was just a coincidence? Anywho I'm looking into making a smoke machine so I can introduce it to the EVAP system to check for any leaks. The rubber gaskets I replaced were not no longer pliable so I will be...

I installed two viper 5901 my 10 accord and 99 accord. A viper 591vx on the 06 Si and they are working perfectly fine. I do like the older viper though because of its faster response time.
