Been experiencing some issues with the ’91 4.0L HO, lately.
First of all, it doesn’t run like it should while idling. It sort of jumps on the RPM, and it sounds like it doesn’t run on all cylinders, totally uneven. This gets worse when revving at a standstill.
Secondly, while travelling at higher speeds, it randomly feels very weak. Typically while trying a second kickdown (the first one being normal), the car acts like it suddenly has 100 horses less.
I am suspecting the plug wires, could they generate this kind of behaviour? They seemed pretty worn.
Any suggestions? I would appreciate some fast help.
