It starts out with a slightly rough idle and over a period of miles, begins spewing raw gasoline out the exhaust. Take it into the dealer/mechanic and he can't verify the problem. It's been suggested that it might have been bad gas, but it's happened a few times and if it's been bad gas every time, I'm taking those odds to Vegas.<br /><br />To my knowledge, they've checked everything from head gaskets to ignition timing, with no luck. Happens once or twice a year.<br /><br />Any ideas? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>st5150</b> <br /><small>Member # 51</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,10,18,13,24,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> tbird94- I was thinking O2 sensor until you said it happens once or twice a year. Problems that occur so rarely are very hard to diagnose.
