1qwk767 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 '95 Ford Explorer 4.0 V6 here are the symptoms. Rough Idle Trying to accelerate it sputters and you get this pinging/popping sound kind of like an oldschool popcorn maker. before it started sputtering the CEL was on, CEL was for a o2 sensor, it was replaced. One day it started sputtering and pinging/popping I figured the car was clogged, well I have a buddy who works at a exhaust shop take the cat off, it was clogged a bit he welded me up a test pipe. Problem not solved. So I put plugs and wires on the car, still acting up. Anything you can somewhat give me an Idea about Thanks In Advance Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Removed Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 there is a OHV 4.0, a SOHC 4.0, and a DOHC 4.0. if there is a miss fire, is it not kicking a code? have you pulled the plugs to check them? check the basis's first.
