i have a problem need advice.my 94 explorer sport has a stumble and slight backfire when i accelerate. i had almost the same problem before and replaced the mass air flow sensor which solved the problem. not this time. i have done a compression check with good solid 138lbs in all 6 cyls. no leak down. replaced spark plug wires, plugs,MAF sensor. the fuel pump and fuel filter i replaced in august of this year.fuel pressure check at the fuel rail is right up to spects.i did a vacumn test to check catalytic converter and it tests as no blockage.gas mileage is still great, and i can get right up to freeway speeds with no problem.then if i put my foot into it it sort of gulps, then you can hear a slight backfire or pop in the exhaust. after a few miles i will get a check eng. light and when i check codes it is code 176 which is "lean condition showing in left bank' i have swapped oxygen sensors from one side to the other and still get same results,so i haven't replaced oxygen sensors as yet. anyone with a suggestion out there??
