My 98 Xj has a strange fluke going on. It has done 5k since the engine swap with all the new parts (plugs, leads, dist cap, rotor, water pump, thermostat, fluids, o2, starter, brakes, fuel pump) I am likely forgetting some. However today when I started the truck after work it ran very poorly. Kind of like those old plymouths that didnt have a choke ran when you would try to start them in the negative temps. I didnt have to give it gas to stay running however I have no idea what this could be. Evened out shortly after. This has happened a few times before but never this badly. Because It only happens when the engine hasnt been running for hours (if it happens at all) I was thinking maybe when I derived timing for the dist I put it in a tooth off? Any thoughts?
Also after it evened out and the truck ran normal I did not notice any loss of power. Seemed to be in proper running order.
