I'm getting a rough idle when I first start my '98 explorer. This has only happened recently since the temp. has dipped into the 30's. I recently did plugs & wires and it ran fine after the tune-up. After I run maybe 2 minutes everything is fine. I have replaced the fuel mixture controller & have ran a bottle of RXP through the gas tank. The motor is the common V-6 used in this model. Any replies will be appreciated.
 






if you have the sohc it is your intake manifold gaskets leaking. get them fixed under recall
 






there's still a recall on this... check with your dealer... I believe it's M something...
