lately, the explorer has felt like it has no power. Even wide open throttle yielded weak acceleration and I needed at least 3.5k rpm to get any feel from the car. Even coasting, the car would slow down tremendously from engine. I popped it into neutral to confirm that the car would roll fine. I bought a k & n replacement ( for 50 bucks at autpzone, was I ripped off? )thinking maybe it was just the stock air filter with air restriction from 34k miles on it. I open the air box and the filter was all covered in oil. Was this normal? The paper was all yellow. I put in the k & n and the explorer started really quick. Acceleration at lower rpm seemed to be a lot better and when I accelerated on the highway, I easily hit 95 mph by accident from my normal throttle output. Not sure if it's the k and n that helped with this better acceleration or just that I finally have a clean filter but there is definitely a huge difference. Should I clean the mag and throttle body too? How do I go about that? I heard you can't use just any kind of cleaner on the maf sensor. I bet that thing must be coated in oil too. Also, I noticed better MPGs of .8 from the computer. Hope it's not the placebo effect lol
