OK. So last week I changed the plugs and wires on my 97'. Turned on the first time and ran fine. Would not ignite the second time starting so I changed the plugs again. Started it up and drove it to a mechanic incase it died again. Get to the mechanic, try to start it again and nothing. Engine wont even turn over. Mechanic wiggles battery terminals and Jeep starts. Jeep ran, but not well. The Jeep would miss every once in a while. Got home and changed the plug wires again and cleaned the battery terminals. Now the Jeep will start, but wont idle. The RPM's are all over the place and it's missing like a bad batter. I barely get it to the mechanic. It stalled twice on the way over and I had to keep the engine above 1500 RPMs to keep it from dying when it missed. So... my question is what is God's name would cause my engine to miss and barely run by just changing the plugs(twice), wires(twice), and cleaning the battery terminal. I finally got a Check Engine light on the way to the mechanic. I don't know what code it is saying, but I'm just trying to get a rough estimate of what went wrong. Please Help!
