1999 Ford Explorer idles rough since I bought it. Paid $120.00 for mechanic to tell me the spark plugs needed to be replaced!!!! They were replaced and the vehicle ran great for about 3 months and now about every 3 months I have to replace the spark plugs or it runs so bad it it barely drivable, not to mention it gets really bad gas mileage ever since the onset of the problem. Wondering if this is a common problem with Explorers...
