Ok heres the deal I have an 88 xj 4.0. The problem is this. It started with the fact that I would start the jeep it would jump to 3000 rpms and stay there tell I shut it down. I would restart it and it would go up to 2500 for 2 to 3 seconds and then drop to idle. 4 days ago I became aware that it now would have a short loss of power you can feel on coast. Then sunday afternoon all hell broke loose. It started jumping and bucking and searching for idle tell it would die at a full stop. I got it back home and have sence tried replacing the map, iac, tps, o2 all at the same time with no luck or change. Now it wont even idle for more then 30 seconds before the iac opens full and then it starts to shake and the rpm's jump to 2500. If I open the throttle plate up it moans with little change in rpm the if I let go of the throttle it dies. Tonight T removed the igni. control module and had it checked by autozone it failed on all levels except the lamp. So i replaced that and still no change. Any idea's would be helpfull. By the way on sunday while nursing it home it would buck and spit untill the rpm got high enough and then it would accel. Up to speed. If I backed down to coast it would buck and loose speed. By pushing the throttle down more and uping the rpms it would smooth out and accel. to the speed I wanted.
