1999 explorer xlt
I have a 1999 explorer xlt 4.0 sohc with a trouble code showing p1131. I know the code points at the bank one upstream o2 sensor and I have tried replacing it with no change. it idles rough at times also stalls and bogs at higher rpm (like when merging on the freeway) i have gone over the vacuum lines over and over and cant find any leaks even had a friend try spraying starting fluid around the intake ports with no revs or bogs. im not sure what else to check please help!!!
 






Intake manifold vacuum lines

P1131 Lack of Upstream Heated Oxygen Sensor Switch - Sensor Indicates Lean - Bank No. 1

The list and location of vacuum lines may help:
Intake manifold vacuum lines

You might also try adding a bottle of fuel injector cleaner to your fuel tank. Maybe one of the injectors is clogged.
