SOLVED! IT WAS the Crank SEnsor (CPS). I don't know if it was just a coincidence with the deer hit or what, but that did it. Thanks t o all who offered awesome suggestions, including the CORRECT suggestion. NAXJA Rocks, babay!

I tried that, and yes they seem to be the same. You're way ahead of me!

I wondered about the ASD, but am not sure how to test, since no relay or fuses have blown. We checked the distrib, and seemed it was fine. Down to either Crank Sensor or... something really unusual. Just in case, we got the CPS out today, need baby hands for that , btu can't track one down...

Cool! I'll try that in the morn, also. Gotta get my buddy's Code Reader. Thanks!

Thanks Shorty! I'll give it a try.

Great idea on doing as much at home first. So there are some of the "assemblies/modules" that don't have the filter?

I almost forgot, I guess I need to start blasting my (super rusty) Trailer Hitch assembly with PB Blaster today, so we can get that off, so we can get the gas tank Skid Plate off, so we can drop the gas tank, to replace the fuel pump/regulator/assembly/module. I'm slowly realizing the...

Good to know. I'm thinking it might be a labor saver ($) to do the whole show RIGHT the first time. I've learned the hard way about skimping on XJ issues - HVAC and dash work, rear springs - that you always end up doing stuff several times, stuff that never has to be done on other vehicles. The...
