It means your car is going to blow-up in 51 seconds...

j/k

code 51 (Fuel system lean) Intake air temp sensor/Engine coolant temp sensor/Exhaust manifold cracked. <-- all possible causes on a stock car.

If you are running lean your car could really brake. no joke.

my static fuel pressure is at about 60psi. And I never boosted yet, still have about 300 more miles to go.

A code 12 is just telling you that your battery has been disconnected within the last 50 starts. its on the main page.
