I need some serious help. I have an 87 Cherokee Laredo, 4.0, inline 6, 4x4, fuel injected, standard tranny. I had leaky injectors, didn't have a bunch of money so I ordered used injectors on ebay. Put them in, it ran great for about 20 miles, and then I let it sit. I got back in it, and it was running like it was out of gas. It was low, but not that low. I put gas in it, and it didn't get any better. Very BLACK exhaust, running rough, oil went from pretty clean to BLACK in a matter of 10 days of running it this way (my daily driver). It dies when I stop, and doesn't want to idle after restart. I have power, just not as much. I can do 60-70 on the hwy, but as soon as I stop, it dies, but restarts easily with a puff of dark exhaust. Someone told me it might be a MAP sensor, or internal injector leaking. This is what is just killing me...I changed the oil, and the oil level is rising, and I think it's getting gas in the oil, and I don't know enough about this stupid thing to figure out why. Should I buy new injectors, or could it be the fuel pressure regulator? I'm pretty strapped for cash, and can't afford a mechanic, and would really appreciate anything you all might know about this situation. I have changed these injectors out myself several times, and am actualy pretty good at figuring this kinda stuff out, but this has me over a barrel. I've also ran injector cleaner through it, thinking it might have just been clogged, and it did nothing. Thanks for any help you may have for me!
