I have a 2004 TJ, 4.0 sport 5 speed manual. 30 inch tires, no lift. Just replaced TPS and IAC after check engine like error code p1294 I think. (wasted money. Did nothing :BangHead cleaned out throttle body, still get a rough idle. Doesn't stall or anything.
There was a lift in it that was removed right before I bought it, and the speedo is consistently 10mph off. I assume this is the speedo gear, however I will bring it up since my tachometer and speedometer is off.
When I start my jeep the rpms are about 1000, then they drop to about 650-700 for a few seconds or less then it drops to zero or about 100. The idle rpm "thinks" it is between zero and about 100. Obviously it would stall out at that rpm. I have plugged in an OBD scanner and it is about 550 rpms off. It seems to stay consistent throughout gears. Going 65 in 5th gear it's about 1500 Rpms. Which, according to others with the same gears and similar tire size, that seems about 500 low still.
It has 3.07 gears :facepalm: and Dana 30 front Dana 35 rear.
This issue has been purely an annoyance. Haven't had any issues wheeling and mudding or daily driving with it. every time I start it it sits at about 600-750 and I'm always thinking "finally it's normal!" (yes I do this probably 5 times a day every time I start it. )
My oil pressure battery and gas gauge seem to be fine. First jeep, had 'er a little more than a year.
Looking for ideas on how to fix it and what is causing it the needle to sit almost at 0 rpms.
Thanks in advance.
My apologies for this being long and rambly its been a long day. :dance1:
