I have a 2005 Explorer with a 4.0, she started throwing a P0430 error and died on the side of the road needing a tow home. Almost everything I read said a P0430 will pollute but not cause the vehicle to stop running but I installed new cats and oxygen sensors anyway. No improvement, she'll start, rev up and then die. I read about testing the MAF sensor so I unplugged it and the truck will start but surge wildly until it dies. I bought a new MAF and no change, unplugged it surges until dead and plugged in it revs up and dies. I can't keep changing parts until it runs but it is not drivable in this condition so I can't drive her to a mechanic.
Does anyone have any idea what could be going on with this vehicle?
TYIA!
