Alright, here recently Ive had some start up problems with my 99 XJ. It turns and there is spark but sometimes i have to floor the gas pedal before she'll start. When she does it revs up to about 3k-3.5k RPM's. Ive done a lot of work to her recently trying to eliminate some of the possibilities. Ive done a tune up consisting of changing plugs, cables dist.cap and rotor. Ive taken off my battery terminals ans brushed em down with a wire brush. I lathered on anti corrosion goo and put felt rings on the battery posts. Ive also noticed that my temp. gauge sometimes stops working but when the engine revs past 4k RPM's it jumps back up for a time. No idea what the problem could be. My last guess is the battery but it checks out good. The only thing about it that gets my attention is that it corrodes A LOT. Every weekend i have to go out and pour a Baking soda/Water mix to clean off the corrosion.
Help is appreciated.
