P1126 is on bank 1 normally for:


1. Intake system is leaking
2. Fuel pressure is too low
3. One or more injectors is failing
4. Volume of fuel delivery is low


I would suggest running fuel trims, check fuel pump for correct delivery pressure and volume. I would also pull the plugs on bank 1 looking for one that is sooty or black and wet.
