It seems like my timing chain is stretching prematurely on my '05 4.0l. I was wondering if any had any ideas as to what would cause that.

A few years ago I was having issues with the Jeep where it would stutter and/or die randomly while stopped at traffic lights or while taking off from a stop. I checked the timing chain and saw that it was loose. I replaced it and that fixed the problem. The same thing is happening again now.
