So my 95 XJ is sputtering/stalling. 4.0L with a manual. It has a home made fuel cell that uses the factory pump and wiring. New Fuel filter installed facing the correct way.
The XJ runs fine for a few minutes then starts to act up. If you turn the key off, wait a minute, the problem goes away for a few minutes again. Comes back faster if you try to hit a hill or something hard. It seems like the idle goes up and down in a cyclic manner and you can hear the fuel pump making noise in a cyclic manner...noise up...noise down...eeee...oooo...etc. I had a spare fuel pump and I swapped that in and no changed BUT it did run fine for a little longer than usual before acting up. Someone told me that white electronic thing on the fender by the air box with the 2 wires going to it is a resistor for the pump and I should try replacing it.
I'm ready to just wire it to a switch with a hot wire switched on by the ignition.
