Im sorry if this has already been posted but i have a stupid question. i have a 1996 Cherokee Classic, 4.0, Automatic, 4 door. over the weekend i cut my muffler off, put 2 glasspacks on for a throatier tone. i also accidentally ran the jeep out of fuel. now my jeep will randomly sputter, sometime on idle, sometime while accelerating. has a hard time downshifting, and sometime downshifts randomly. is it possible that the free flowing exhaust is causing the engine to think i have the accelerator pressed further than i have, and is loading the engine with fuel causing the sputtering? or is the fuel pump just dieing? i hear that 4.0's do not like free flowing exhausts but i am not sure. xD thanks...
