Hi everyone!
I drive a 2006 4.0 with 78k miles on it. Have had problems here and there but nothing too serious. But recently, I’ve had a problem that’s stumped everyone. The jeep runs fine, but if I try to turn it on while the engine is warm and the gas is at (or under) a quarter of a tank; it shakes viciously, makes an awful clunking sound, my rpms fluctuates, and I get a horrible gas smell. It literally feels like an earthquake inside my jeep. Sometimes it stops doing it after 5 seconds, sometimes I have to it off and wait 3-5 minutes. The check engine light will pop on as well, but as soon as I fill it up the tank completely, the light will turn off and start completely fine. Hopefully one of you can help me since nobody else can!
