Hi All,


My 2001 4.0 sport trac with 77,000 miles has been stalling and "running lean".  I took it to my mechanic and they put it on the infamous hand held commuter and told me I needed 2 O2 sensors.  I had all 3 changed, all spark plugs, all wires and still stalling and "running lean"(as per the computer).  I just called Ford and they told me that no matter what part I changed, they would have to start from scratch!!!!!  OMG, Ive spent $500 so far on parts and labor.  I've been on the internet and this seems to be a common problem with these trucks.  The Ford guy also told me that sometimes the computer goes, depending on milage, and that's around $1200!  Any advise?  It starts out fine when cold and then 2-3 miles later, it hesitates, stalls at lights and stop signs; bucks at around 45 mph and 65 mph.  Who can I trust?  I know there's a gentleman on this site that seems to know quite a lot about everything. Any input would be appreciated. I bought this truck new.


PS  I am a female:(
