I'm sure you have installed a fuel pressure gauge and monitored the fuel pressure while the problem is occurring?Another diagnostic tool which is easy to do,is while the problem is occurring,unplug one sensor at a time beginning with the Mass Air Flow first,.if it uses one.Many times,not always,depending on the sensor,if the sensor is taken out of the picture as far as what the PCM is seeing,like unplugging the MAF,the PCM will substitute the missing sensor output with a generic value that will allow the engine to at least run,and if unplugging for example the MAF,the engine idle speed returns to normal,you know you're onto the problem.You didn't mention if the engine ran ok other than the idle problem.As far as checking for vacuum leaks,i use something like brake cleaner or WD 40,more of a liquid,and it does sound like a vacuum leak.Plastic intake manifolds do develop nearly invisible cracks that open up more with heat.Revsisit the possibility.And as for the PCM,it is possible,but more likely a mechanical problem.Lastly,remove an O2 sensor or two before the catalytic convertor,run the engine and see if anything changes.Cheap way to verify the catalytic convertor is flowing and not restricting engine airflow,as i have seen bad cats cause misfire codes and strange problems.Good luck.

Check PCV valve and be sure it is not stuck open.  Check for vacuum leak at intake manifold.

sounds like youve really done your home work all that comes to mind now is try a cam posistion sensor this would keep your car from starting as well if that is good you can aslo try a crank sensor. you will get all of the readings that you are getting and these sensors can still be bad.

Idles rough,run ok at road speed misses occasionally

This one is tricky. Any check engine lights. Could be O2 sensor. How are your vacuum lines this could be a leak issue from a worn hose. Possibly your ignition coil. Could be getting weak. I need more information

1990 trooper 2.8L V6 Gasoline starts hard if at all,fires then backfires then runs a few sec then dies

Have you cleaned the throttle valve and the air bypass idle speed control valve? If not do that. When they get really gummed up from backwash from the combustion process they cause this problem of stall on cold start.

The condition you describe is usually caused be a vacuum leak. You should check all vacuum hoses for tightness.
Maybe PCV valve or things on that system.

something is creating alot of air to pass over the 02 sensor.


Low compression
Big vacuum leak.
Weak ignition
IAC stuck a little open.
TPS that is saying your foot is on the gas when it is not.
EGR stuck open a little.
Too low an idle
Weak spark plugs
Bad fuel pressure regulator
No vacuum to the fuel pressure regulator.
Bad coolant temp sensor.

What are the readings. Need to know the co and the hc reading in order to know if you have a misfire or an over fueling issue. All 5 reading are really needed to diagnose fuel related issues sight unseen

I have a 94 ranger 4.0 it surges while driving. Ive changed mas air flow,fuel presure reg,both oxygen sen on pipe,throttle pos sensor and plug wires.HELP!!

There are a few other things you can check that you didn't mention:
Have a fuel pressure test done, the fuel pump could be weak, or not operating right.
Check all the vacuum lines, all it takes is a pin hole in a line to screw up the whole thing.
Also, did you change the fuel filter?
Have the map sensor checked, and the vacuum hose going to it.
Hope this helped a little for you.
