98 EB 5.4L - Rough Idle - #5 Misfire
All,
I have 98 EB w/ 5.4L that has developed a misfire. Noticeable rough idle and the scanner revealed:
P0156 - Bank 2 Sensor 2 02 Sensor Circuit Malfunction
P0305 - #5 Misfire
P0174 - Bank 2 System Lean
I check elec connections to #5 Coil and #5 Fuel Injector and they are all good. Went and bought a new coil and spark plug. Replaced both, same condition. What else could it be? Fuel Injector?
I can see why the 02 error would occur as I am sure the temp is hotter than it should be in the exhaust, and I assume that could lead to the lean condition. I disconnected the battery when I was replacing the parts, so the CE light is not illuminated when I test drove it. It is still noticeably misfiring, but maybe not quite as bad. I don't want to drive it any more as I don't want to damage the Catalytic Convertor or 02 sensors. It is going to the shop on Monday morning, but if someone has something else to try, I will try that first.
Thanks,
Ron
