    Metallic clinking noise and stalling

    Hi guys I've got a 1999 Sahara with a 4.0 and 32rh trans. For the last month I've been dealing with a combo of rpm surging, power loss and high idle. I cleaned the throttle body and sensors, changed the spark plugs and wires and a new distributor cap. Which fixed the problem for a day and a...

    Jeep TJ intermittent surging idle and stalling

    I’ve recently had some issues with my 2004 Jeep wrangler rubicon that I was looking for some help with. Since I purchased the vehicle, I’ve had a very loud whistling sound that I assumed to be a vacuum leak. I replaced the throttle body as that’s where a majority of the smoke came out of when...

    Bad Manual PCM?

    I have an 06 4.0 manual that is bone stock (yes, original owner). When starting out, the Jeep has started to stall and even die (pretty embarrassing in traffic). When it dies, depressing the clutch will not save it, but it will fire right back up. After a couple months of very light driving, it...

    Unanswered SKIM problem

    Searched the threads and I didn’t see this question asked. I’ve had the TJ for 3 years and a prior owner had removed the SKIM sensor. No problems starting and running in 3 years until recently when the engine would stall after a couple of seconds running and I got the P1686 code. I sent the PCM...

    Jeep stalls after hitting a bump and if gas pedal is not engaged.

    Hello, I have a 1999 4.0L Jeep TJ which I bought about 3 years ago. Recently the A/C speed selector had stopped working (melted from inside) and I fixed thanks to some of the other forums about it and now the A/C works perfect. I ran the Jeep a couple of times after fixing this A/C selector...

    RPMs get so low that my TJ almost stalls

    Hey guys I’m not sure how to word my question other than after I drive my 98 TJ for about 20 minutes on the highway if I stop somewhere or at a light or drive thru my RPM’s go way down to the point of stalling and when I push on the gas it doesn’t rev. It only happens when I drive it a lot that...

    Need advice. Stalling after cold start.

    I just bought a newly built 1998 wrangler with (with 5.7L V8) but I'm sad to report it's been consistently stalling when I turn out of a stop sign after a cold start in the morning. It runs perfectly great when warmed up so I've isolated the issue to a cold start. It originally had a FiTech go...

    Engine dies randomly

    My 4.0 keeps dying randomly. I threw a new mopar crankshaft positioning sensor at it a few weeks ago thinking that would fix it and forgot about it. This Sunday it happened again and got it towed to a mechanic. He said he checked all my grounds, relays, fuel pressure, and fuses. At first he...

    Stall but restart after resetting CPS

    99 TJ 4.0 manual. I seem to be losing communication from the Cam sensor/distributor pick up to the ECU. The jeep dies when coming to a stop or once letting off the gas to stop. I lose all gauges and get the No Bus code on the dash. i tracked down the sensor causing the issue to the cam /...

    PCM Failure Diagnosis

    Hello all. I wanted to gauge opinions. I had some issues a year ago where the jeep just wouldn't crank (turn key, nothing happened). I thought it was the starter, which I replaced but it continued happening. Then within the last few weeks my jeep started stalling randomly. It only happens after...

I drive a 99' Automatic in the past few months i have been having very rough starts (basically wont start unless i give it gas while turning the key) on top of that nearly 75% of the time i stop at red lights and stop signs the...

    It wasn't the PCM: What else could it be?

    I originally took my jeep in when I thought I was having a misfiring issue. In any gear the jeep starts to stall like it's not getting fuel. Take my foot of the gas and press back down it works. When this happens all the gauges lose power and the check engine light temporarily comes on. But as...

    2012 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited stalling when I come to a stop

    My 2012 Jeep Wrangler stalls about 1/3 of the time when I come to a stop- like at a red light, stop sign, or when I am shifting to from drive to reverse or from reverse to drive. I have taken it to the local Jeep dealership where they had it for three weeks and could not get a code. They asked...

    I have a 1999 Jeep Wrangler Sport 4.0L 6Cyl. Whenever I am accelerating from a stop it will start bucking and shaking like if it was going to stall out. This only happens when accelerating from a full stop. When I first turn the car on in the morning, it accelerates fine for the first few stop...

    Got everything up and running finally after a long winter. Went for a drive in the morning and everything was running smoothly. Then in the afternoon went for a drive and within 1 mile started stalling (I have a 2002 Wrangler X 6cyl automatic). I was able to shut down and restart, but kept...
