I have a 2002 V6 Mustang. About three days ago, the engine starts shaking and I have a monumental loss of power. The shaking is at it's worst while idling. It is also sputtering and backfiring, and I have an odd odor in the cabin. My gas mileage has also gone right into the crapper.
Thus far, I have changed all of the spark plugs & cables, gotten an oil change and complete fuel line service, a new fuel filter, and two new O2 sensors installed. Nothing has helped.
Getting a diagnosis from an auto parts store tells me that it's running lean. All of this started without any warning, while I was stopped at a light.
I am out of ideas, and it doesn't help that my automotive knowledge is pretty limited. Please help if you can, and thank you in advance.
