Pesky Check Engine Light

Hello. I am new to this site but I am dealing with an issue that's common with these 2004 Ford trucks. My truck has a 5.4 engine. The check engine light popped on a couple of years ago. So I went and did a fuel injection flush and cleaning and the light went away...emission passed. Then the light popped up again. Got new spark plugs and coils done. Light off. Problem solved. Then...got a diagnostics done, couldn't find anything wrong. So got a scan tool, the code was P2272 BANK 2 DOWNSTREAM STUCK LEAN. So now Im thinking exhaust leak. Replaced the one bank 2 o2 sensor with a Bosch one, failed emissions. So now I'm thinking and was recommended that ALL 4 sensors be replaced with Motorcraft. So if anyone had the same issue but got the answer to the check engine light problem, I would be greatly appreciative, and many thanks and blessings to you

Whoever recommended that stupidity should be ignored.

Swap the two downstream sensors and see if the fault moves to bank 1 or stays with bank 2. If it stays, check for wiring harness problems or exhaust leaks.
