Hey all!

My vintage 1994 Explorer XLT is starting to show her age (by vintage I mean less then 32,000 miles :) ). Recently the evil check engine light came on. It comes on after I start driving a few miles and resets when the vehicle is off. It does not come on if I start the vehicle and idle it for a bit. I notice a power problem, slow acceleration...sputtering from the ngine at low RPM but once im above 20mph its fine. Any ideas? Im taking a shot in the dark but maybe something with the fuel system...injectors?

take it to auto zone, pull the engine code. Go to a internet search engine and search for the code or post it here someone could help you, figure out what it is. Curious have you ever had your fuel filter changed?

you might a TPS problem...might want to change out the TPS ( Throttle positioning sensor )
