#17 of 20 ford explorer 5.0 AWD misses under load by bbelasco Jun 04, 2009 (5:03 am)
Under load the car pops and misses, idles fine, also revs fine. I have checked vacuum of intake manifold, checks out just fine. Removed exhaust system, no restrictions, still pops and misses under load. New spark plugs, does anyone have any suggestions as to where to look. Check engine light is not on, no codes.   Thanks Replies to this message: coop04 (Jun 04, 2009 6:02 pm)

Replying to: bbelasco (Jun 04, 2009 5:03 am) good luck with that i have the same problem with my 95 4.0 for the last yrs and 50,000 miles. i took it to a dealer thinking if anyone could find it they would....they couldnt i changed the iac valve and the tp sensor the coil pack and the plugs and wires twice all the vacuum lines and even injector o-rings...nothing helped. they wanted 300 just to pull the plugs because they couldnt find anything else. I am leaning towards possible timing chain or failing lifter. One person told me maybe the pcm. i still dont know but it still keeps chugging along
#19 of 20 2002 Explorer V8 , losing HP, knocking and running very rough by deetee Jul 04, 2009 (12:06 pm)
Hi Guys, My explorer, is running rough and losing horse power. When I go to excelerate it just lugs, 2500 RPM's and going 30 MPH. IT is knocking like hell as well, it sounds like the engine is very over heatedor running out of gas but its not , coolent is full and gauge is mid point. I have always had the car serviced when needed. I have never had this issue before. Could this be a fuel injector or fuel filter issue and is there a way to check. I am hoping it is something this simple. Could a manifold gasket cause the same symptoms. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks   Dennis
