    Revving on own, used to run rich, unplugged MAf sensor...intake problem?

    So I've gone quite a few places and can't seem to fix my explorer. Not looking for a miracle, but though I'd share it's history with you guys and see what happens! One day out of nowhere, my '93 XLT started revving from about 500-1500 over and over again on its own. Only time it would stop is...

    I have a '94 explorer 4wd auto trans. It will shift into reverse or park with only a slight 4sec delay but OD, D, 2, and 1 give it a 90sec to never delay on the shift. Once in gear It shifts just smooth between 1, 2, 3, etc.... It has ATF and I changed the trans vacuum modulator. I think it...
