- 1993 Explorer
Hey,
About a month ago I bought a '93 Explorer Sport, 2WD, Auto Trans, with 227,000 miles on it. It is a daily driver, with some fun outdoor stuff mixed in here and there.
I'll try to make this brief. There are a variety of things that need work, but I am currently just trying to get the thing running decent. There is a slight hesitation at initial acceleration, and then acceleration is often sluggish. Then things free up and the X takes off great... until I have to come to a stop and start the whole process again.
What I have done so far:
Changed oil and oil filter
Changed plugs and wires
Changed fuel and air filters
It had a new MAF still in the box, so I swapped that out just for fun.
Changed tran cooler hoses (they were leaking)
Okay, I've pulled codes and here is what I get (hopefully I do this right):
KOEO: 111
KOER: 998
CM: 157
I pulled codes before and after I swapped the MAF with the same result (cleared codes before swapping MAF).
The X still idles rough, hesitates slightly at initial acceleration, and then accelerates sluggish. I've lurked here and found all kinds of things to continue to work on, but I need some help... I'm a bit overwhelmed.
I'm a list guy... I like checklists... so I was wondering if someone had a checklist that I could use as a plan of attack? I can search this great forum for the details, I could just use some help getting organized.
Thanks.
