OK, i got the 87 cherokee running very well, even got it smoking a lot less, as my earlier post. EGR valve was bad, replaced with a working one. Coil tested not like a new one, replaced with one, not new, with one that tested higher. One of those made it run phenominal! While driving it, it didnt stall run at 750-800 idle, and it really only puffed out at when changing gears.
Ok now the problem, it stalled when coming to a stop, and it took a few cranks to start it back up. When I got it back up i had to double foot it back home. When I got it there it would stay at idle, it sounded like it was misfiring, and sounded like it had a severe leak, cant really tell if its intake or exhaust. My vacuum went from being just perfect at 15-16 to right around 9-10.
I went inside disgusted, and decided to look at a few more things. When I went to try and start it, it took forever to start at least 10-15 cranks, when it did finally start it revved right around 2500. I unhook the TPS, the idle drops and then dies, even if i connected it back.
List of things done before the problem:
New-CPS, cap, rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filter, valve stem seals
cleaned throttle body, IAC, and seafoamed
Fuel pressure 32 with vac 39 w/o vacuum
comp 145-155
vac 15-16
engine is 4.0 renix 234,xxx
I am thinking either dist jumped out of timing(if at all possible), and maybe the cat(not the kind that meows)
Please any help would be nice and very appreciated, Im about to throw in the towel!
