I have a 93 explorer, at times you will be going down the road smoothly at speed limit. Then all of a sudden big power loss and almost stalling. And most times it wont do that. And it will have a stong smell to it. When I stop. All gauges read normal, heat, press, bat.

I would start by checking two things. First, it sounds like the catylatic converter may be plugging and causing a power loss and the smell. If it is good, you need to check the fuel pump pressure to see if it is low.

Let me know what you find or if you have questions.
