I live in Wyoming and went to Colorado. Ive got an 98 explorer with a 5.0 that I rebuilt and has about 4000 miles on it. It ran fine their and at a traffic light it started to run rough. When I gave it gas it would back fire and had no power. I thought maybe it was a plug wire but they were all good. I got it back on the interstate and it would hardly go. Finally got it up to speed and it seemed out until the first hill and it down shifted and was back firing. Just before the Wyoming boarder it died and the radiator blew up. Any suggestions
