Re: my cherokee runs weird
 

Hey all, I thought I fixed my running weird problem, it was running rough and almost stalling some times, so for the hell of it I said ill put out the plugs and if they are fouled up and by the jesus they were those cheap auto lites from canadian tire, well put in champion platinum plugs and new wires. Seemed to fix the problem well until it started cooling off, now have the same issue but on in the evenings due to the temp dropping. I also pulled the tb off and gave it a good cleaning same with iac and tps. Boy what a change in throttle response after that. Was gonna change out the fuel pump but after calling napa and them saying we don't carry those, left with no choice to all the dealer ship, and ill be god damned if I'm paying 130 for a F'IN filter and I know they have a regulator in them. I haven't put new o2 sensors but I have 2 ngks on order at napa and well the great discount I get so I shouldn't pay any more then 170 for the pair. Anyhow not sure what else to do about the weird running when cool out, and I did an inspection for the clunk under my feet, checked drive shafts and ball joints both are good and tight. Read the other night same issue from bad motor mounts and a bad tranny mount, any how rambled on enough any idea anyone?

Did you check those motor mounts you read about?

Yes I took a look today, been sick for a few days so I never had a chance. But any how they don't look like they are bad. I also got underneath today and decided to shake a few things looking for the problem. Well got to the trac bar and well noticed some play from side to side. And to shake and push up and down there was some movement. I don't have a lift so very weiry on what trac bar to replace with an adjustable one for when I do put a lift in would be nice but don't have any idea on where to start. Also maybe changing the steering stabilizer and control arm bushing's would be a good idea too. Only reason I say steering stabilizer is due to some light wheeling nothing to hard core, I've noticed a far amount of bump steer. Now about the suspension issues semi figured out will know for sure when I get paid and buy a few things, anyone have any ideas about running issue. Was at the gas station friday and it was pouring so went to a full serve where my uncle works and was talking to buddy working the pumps said he had one and ran weird as well. He said he replaced his distributor cap and rotor button and cured the problem. What's the odds this is my problem? Let me know your 2 cents worth. I appreciate any input. Cheers
