OK, it's a 98XJ with close to 140K on it and a recently rebuilt clutch. What is happening is that when I am starting up from a full stop it gets a bit "jerky". Then suddendly it got very jerky, and I was almost considering that my clutch went bad (I'm talking about the point where you almost fully let go of the clutch). Then my chcek engine light kicked in and thrown a code for "too high voltage out of the TPS". I promptly reset the comp after reseating the connector (of all things, I had to unplug the TPS on Sat as I was putting a new gasket under the TB, and while doing so I looked at teh TB and it looked clean). All got better till the next day when it got jerky again and the check engine light tripped again. So I reset it again (I got the code reader with me in the car ) and it hasn't come back for 2 days now, but.... the startup from full stop or near full stop as I'm realeasing clutch in the first is rather jerky (hard to describe it otherwise). So, is it a TPS problem or a clutch problem and the first is the symptom of the second? I got vlose to 15K on the new clutch and till now I didn't really ahve any complaints. I have no complaints once I am rolling, but before I do so it's a whole different story.
BTW, my idle seems to be fine, which I always thought should be an indication of a TPS going bad.
