Default Check engine light

2000 Discovery with 110000 miles. It came on about a month ago. I don't drive it daily. I ordered a brand new Bosch MAF and 4 O2's since they had not been replaced. I have installed the new parts, cleared the codes (1174, 1171) and the check engine light came back on after about 16 miles. I have kept up on the maintainance except for the plug wires have not been replaced. Like I said it is not my daily driver anymore, but I would like to get it fixed since the inspection ran out.

Any thoughts?

Hey Mike, it looks like it was a throddle body gasket. I found the leak by spraying carb cleaner around the intake until it was pinpointed. I will replace the gasket tomorrow and see what happens! Thanks for the advise!
