Well after month's of battling with my cherokee on the issue of stumbling,backfiring,poor idle,bucking etc etc... I HAVE FOUND A FIX!!! not sure if this will help you guys but i figured i would post it just in case..
I went through pretty much every sensor,checked and replaced a few but there was one sensor i overlooked. The INTAKE AIR TEMP SENSOR!! One stupid little sensor and that was my problem.. i unplugged it and the truck ran like new again. Never would have thought that this sensor would cause these problems but it did.
The inspection for this sensor is to run the vehicle up to operating temperature, turn off vehicle and check resistence across the sensor, should be around 185ohms @ 100c or 212f, my sensor was around 1400ohms, which is very high.. The vehicle will run without the sensor but is cheap enough to buy so i'm gonna replace it.
Hopefully this can be of help to some of you guys out there experiencing similar issues.
