2004 Ford Ranger FX4 LVL 2 4.0 ltr. V-6 60,400 miles. truck now idles @ 3000 rpm and has a major loss of power. check engine light comes on and off. could this be an o2 sensor or maybe an MAF sensor? (airbox might have been full of snow) (disconnecting maf sensor and idle goes back to normal and also rattling sound coming from cat. converter)
