I have a 1997 Ford Explorer 4.0 SOHC 4wheel drive.
I am having trouble with it having a rough idol, and the transmission not shifting. I took it to a local transmission place to have it looked at and they told me that there was two minor things wrong before they could diagnose the transmission. #1- It is miss firing, #2- The TPS is throwing a bad code. I just replaced the plugs and the TPS within the past 8 months.
What else could be the issue? I've been through this site alot tonight and have found several things it could be. I had some friends check it out and they told me it is the Mass Air Flow Sensor. Would that cause the issues with my vehicle running really badly and not shifting?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I rely on this vehicle being a single parent to two children.
Thanks everyone!
