Probably not one of the O2 sensors, but it could be a bad fuel injector.

A new 02 sensor will come with new wires and connector. If not get back with me I think there is a repair kit for that problem.

Have you checked your camshaft sensor? It's possible that the vane on the Synchronizer is misaligned.

I have 2001 Ford Windstar w/ 3.8L. I had vehicle diagnosed when eng. light came on. It was e.g.r. valve, bad 1&3 cylinder, & mass air flow. It was running and driving pretty rough, and going thru...

1- o/d light is transmission issue- if miles in excess of 135000- change fluid and filter and cross fingers- known issue with windstars
2 unsure of wiring for 02 sensor - sorry
3 - windstars have a leakage problem at intake that throws lots of codes dealing with injectors/o2- dealer kit to replace o-rings,gaskets,bolts and valve cover to correct
4- lots of revs with no go - either tranmission issue-see 1 or catalydic converter melted/plugged

1999 ford ranger 4x4 4.0L motor is skipping replaced camshaft sensor,crankshaft sensor,new coil pack,new plugs,wires,and replaced mass air flow sensor,now its still skipping and codes pulled are showing...

P1151 means a lean bank 2 O2 sensor
P1152 Means a rich bank 2 O2 sensor
P1309 Means miss fire detected
I would check your fuel injector for fouling
When they foul the will develop a drip
Causing a fuel fluctuation that will have O2 sensors reporting rich and lean voltage changes
This causes the pcm to adjust injector pulses making them shorter and longer.
causing more fuel or less fuel.
From this condition you may see plug fouling.
Also check for leaking or faulty fuel pressure regulator or restricted return line.
Most of the time it wont be a bad O2 sensor the O2 sensor is just doing its job.
You also have already changed the plugs and Map so there already out of the way.
If this helps please give me some feed back
Hope this works for you FixYa

My 2002 Expedition service engine light is on and it's misfiring

Sounds strange for all of that to be happening. The valve covers might need new gaskets. If you have a misfire, it could cause the O2 sensor to have a bad reading. Usually it's only 1 or 2 coils. (I would also replace the associated plug if they change a coil.) You could run it from there and if it doesn't clear up, then replace the O2 sensor at that point. Given the age of the car, getting the O2 sensor out may be a pain because it may be rusted/frozen in. Ford didn't believe in doing a good job putting anti-seize on the O2 sensor heads. Mine stripped when trying to replace an O2 sensor, so rather than have to replace a whole section of exhaust, I went to Midas and had them cut it out and weld in a new piece with a bung for the new O2 sensor.

2002 Ford Windstar Error Code P1131 And P1151

those two codes are for the o2 sensors. both are the upstream sensors on the front and rear banks. so they are desinagted bank 1 sensor 1 and bank 2 sensor 1. them most common cause for this is faulty o2sensors , bad gas and of a poor running engine. so if your car runs good (no misfire) and gas is ok then replace the o2sensor witch is the very most common cause.
