Problems

I know i posted a while ago about this, but still need help.

93 aero, 3.0 RWD

Error Code
Bank #1 Lean
Bank #1 Rich

Idles a little rough, not too bad

When accelerating fast, at high rpm, makes a backfireing sound, sounds like it's from the intake.

When at cruising speeds, is seems to miss. it's not a steady miss, but every few +/- seconds it'll, miss or hesitate.

Van has 200k miles on it.

Just wondering what it could be, dealers and what not are no help at all... I have mechanical experience, but cannot for the life of me figure this out.


Thank you VERY VERY much!!!!

Scroll down this Forum and search for topics and replies by Mikeman, regarding burnt valves. Read through those and see if their symptoms match your own. Good luck!

(Alternatively, use the dark blue "SEARCH" button on the upper right menu bar and set the search field to this forum. Ignor the one on the right hand side of this page that is underlined in light blue, it does not search the forums).

Let's See....
New Cap & Rotor, Plugs (helped a little)
O2 sensor (runs good now)
Mass Air Sensor (just because)
Injectors (3 of 'em were a little rough )
I didn't buy the Mass air or injectors new, got them out of a ranger with under 30K at a junkyard...
Just put a new exhaust on from the manifolds back, got rid of the factory cats (200k miles) and replaced it all with new... Runs like a charm now, and quiet. The main thing was the Cap/Rotor/Plugs, and the 02 sensor...
