Ok bear with me I am coming to you guys for an answer because I am lost. I am a mechanic and this one has me lost!!!!
For about the last month my 89 XJ has been surging while driving. It is an 4.0, 4x4, Automatic. I replaced the plugs, cap, rotor, wires and fuel filter. I cleaned the K&N filter and oiled it. I cleaned the throttle body plate due to carbon build up. At that time the idle started getting worse. At a stop in gear or not it will idle real eratic. Anywhere from 800rpms to 3000rpms. I then cleaned the AIC valve and replaced the TPS. This helped very little. It doesnt seem to be jumping as high but still idles around 1500-1800rpms. I also replaced the MAP sensor. This particular cherokee does not have a mass air flow sensor from the factory and the EGR vavle has been disconnected for as long as I can remember. The engine only has about 15,000 miles on rebuild and has given me no problems till now. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. :gonnablow
