so i had my explorer stored for a couple months outside my aunts house...not really stored, but, sitting outside on top of 6 inches of ice..first time starting it it took about 3 minutes of trying to get it to start, finally it starts. next time i go to use it, it wont start again, after about a minute, it starts. i go to put gas in it, it dies, wont start now for 10 minutes. once in awhile it would just bog down and almost die, then it would catch and start running fine... finally i just sold my sunfire today, so i start driving the explorer again...drives fine, bogs, drives fine, bogs. leaving crappy tire...it bogs, bogs, bogs, then dies. try to start it, bogs a bit, then dies. now it wont start at all, and there is quite a bit of oil around where the spark plugs are. i looked it up, and changing the head gaskets seams to be quite the job....might not be worth it...might be more worth it to scrap the vehicle... whats the possibilities?
