- 2003 ford explorer xlt
Having a couple issues and looking for a little help. My wife drives a 2003 Explorer with the 4.0 v6. Well recently it started idling really rough and stalling after a few minutes of idling. Its even really tough to get started. And when you hit the accelerator the engine bogs down and looses power like its being starved of fuel. I changed all spark plugs and ignition coil pack and it didn't fix the problem. I hooked the OBD meter up to it and it now pulls codes P2195, P2197. I have cleaned the mass airflow sensor and checked for a vacuum leak. No leak and the MAF cleaning didn't help either. Only thing I didn't do is replace the O2 sensors. I know my way around an engine decent enough to fix most things but by no means am I a mechanic and diagnosing problems aren't my strong suit, I hate it. Can anyone help me out a little tell me what the problem may be or something else to check? Someone to point me,in the right direction? I just hate dumping money into things that aren't fixing,the problem.
