2002 Ford Explorer Lagging - Engine


Question: I was driving this morning and everything was fine then the check gage light came on and then the service engine light came on and the vehicle did not want to accelerate and the RPM'would not not go past 2. After a little bit it will kick in but if I have to stop it starts all over again and the car does not move fast.

Technican: You will need to have the computer "scanned". This will tell what area is causing the service engine light to come on. I believe PepBoys, Autozone, etc. offer free scans. With that information we can figure out where the problem is.
Owner: do you have an idea what this may cause this or have you seen this problem before?
Technican: You could have a bad airflow meter, bad fuel pump, or other bad sensor. The scan will help pinpoint the problem.
Owner: My husband isn't the brightest and he poured some gasoline that was old into my Ford Explorer, could this have any effect.
Technican: Possibly. The best cure for that is run the truck until the fuel is nearly empty, then fill it with fresh. If it clears up, the light will turn off in a few more days. If there is another basic problem, the light and the poor driving will continue, even with fresh gas.
