My 97 Country started having issues a couple weeks ago. It would run fine on startup then start hesitating and bogging down. If I floor the gas it would clear up and come to life. It would only do it once or twice in a drive at first. Issue progressively got worst to the point it was hardly drivable, and would stall out completely. Once it stalled out the only way it would start back up is to crank it wot. Lots of smoke and gas smell.
I was getting no CEL. I replaced the TPS with a mopar unit. Went for a test drive and jeep stalled out immediately. Got it started again, and seemed to be fixed. Drove 10 miles or so, and cel came on. Code 22 temp sensor. Still running ok the rest of that evening. The next day it stalled if i let it idle or coast. I replaced the temp sensor, cleaned the plug for it, and greased it. Cleared cel, and test drove it. Jeep ran great! Probably the best it has ran since I have owned it. Parked it for the night thinking it was good to go. This morning it stumbled 1/4 mile into my drive. No cel. It cleared up and felt good again. I got on highway and cel came on. It is now throwing 21 02 sensor. Kind of to be expected I guess as rich as it was running prior to tps replacement. I will be replacing the 02 sensor. Am i missing anything else here? It is becoming frustrating when i park it running good then it acts up in the morning. TIA
