:mad: I am having TONS of trouble with my 2002 Ford Explorer Sport 4.0 and need help. I have already checked the codes and get: P0301 P0302 P0303 and P0174. I have also had the ignition coil tested and its fine. The CEL flashes when the engine has warmed up. Mostly after sitting at a light for more than a minute. Once I start driving again it stops flashing and just stays lit. Also with this cold weather in TX it has hesitation starting. Any suggestions? Ideas? Solutions? Please help before I go insane lol :mad::mad::mad:

Oh and when I checked the oil it kinda smells like gas??? Not sure what would cause that...

Cylinder blow by can cause gas in your oil. Have you done a compression check? How many miles on your Ex?
