Ok so yesterday I went to start my jeep and it was cranking over with nothing happening after a minute or two of attempts it sputtered to life and it ran fine the rest of the night and this morning. While on my way to work this afternoon, it suddenly died at a stop light and it took a few minutes of cranking for it it start again, and it made it a good ways but when I let off the gas the engine rpms didn't return to idle but instead it idled high and was somewhat erratic (i cleaned my idle air control valve a few months ago so I doubt that's it). It died once again at the turn into the parking lot, and this time it wouldn't start and a good Samaritan in a truck pulled me into the lot. I haven't had much time to do any trouble shooting but I feel it is either the CPS or a fuel delivery problem. Does the inconsistency usually mean a fuel delivery problem or the CPS? I originally thought the CPS but when I think about it now it may be fuel related as both times it didn't die while idling but instead when I just started to accelerate from a stop. Any thoughts?
