Hi Folks,
I have a '99 Ford Explorer XLT 4L, 4WD SUV. 118,000KL on it. Lately I have been getting engine ping, especially when entering and going uphill.
Today..this morning, I backed it out of the garage and drove over town and back. Nothing out of the ordinary. This afternoon, my wife went across town and when she got back, she told me the Check Engine Light was on.
I went out to the vehicle and started it. Sure enough the check engine light was on and there was a noticeable roughness in how it ran. I took it around the block and it was low on power as well and continued the rough running.
What may have broke so suddenly?
Thanks
Allan
