If it's lean I'm guessing the fuel injectors. Run some fuel injector cleaner and it should get rid of carbon buildup that could be blocking the injectors. If that doesn't work then it's just simply faulty injectors.

^DOUBTFUL. Is it just running lean on cylinder 1 and 2 or is it banks 1 and 2. I'm guessing bank 1 and 2 and if so it could be several things. You can start by cleaning the MAF sensor. Next check the PCV valve. It could also be caused by a vacumn leak. Do a search and you will find a ton of information on this.
