Installed new plugs, ran good for a while at idle not on road. While running makes exhaust pipe on right bank cherry red and back to running rough and won't idle. Smells like gas in oil. Fuel regulator possibly?
It could be two things a bad injector or a the intake gaskets are leaking
if it was me I would take the gas cap off before starting remove the fuel rail and replace all the spark plugs with double platium and inspect the coil pack on all the cylinders and if the springs are damaged or corrided replace them they are about $6 at autozone for the boot only and this should help with your problem I have a 2000 expedition and I had to do all this to get rid of the same problem

Someone suggested it may be the fuel regulator. Replaced it. Not the problem. I can hold the gas pedal down in one spot and it spits and sputters while the RPM's fluctuate up and down.Duel exhaust pipes, dr. side normal hot air. Pass. side cool. Tried to drive absolutely no power, barely moves itself. Plugged cat. converter(s), maybe plugged or wide open injector(s)????? Pain in the a to get to the plugs. Plugs may need cleaningagain. When I changed the fuel reg. tried to drain fuel pressure before starting, no pressure!???
I also changed the plugs changed the coil pack had the injectors checked same problem but didi not help
air control sensor clean it out there are two screws that hold it in place take both of and clean theam both have two screws
no backfires and when it does work right it runs great
