1992 jeep xj. 4.0 automatic.
drove her to work today.
coming off the freeway she stalled at the light.
started her.
she died again.
held gas down. she started. hit her into drive. drove to work.
As I pulled into work she kept stalling and stumbling.
died pulling into work.
would not start again.
can turn her over.
sounds fine on turnover. (doesn't sound like a mechanical issue)
when I start by holding gas now she stumbles and dies. when she does run its super rough.
No coolant in oil or vice versa.
I think this is idle are control valve or mas going bad.
there is fuel in the rail. I popped the line off and there was no lack of fuel.
help ?
jeep is stuck at work until I figure this out.
This motor was rebuilt like 5k miles ago.
without hitting gas starting she just turns and turns. will not start.
NO CODES AT ALL code 12 and 55 battery disconnect and end of codes only ones showing.
I cannot tow her home til I get paid Friday. So I am trying to figure this out before then. if its just a sensor I can swap it in the parking lot and save myself the cost of a tow that's the main goal here.
I have yet to pull the spark plugs to check for other issues. I will get back with information if I get the plugs out.
Im going to go check if the distributor is turning on my next break at work to see if timing chain broke but I doubt it since it will start. when holding gas.
