86 Cherokee acceleration problems
Hi all Back again. I am still having problems getting my 1986 Cherokee
Pioneer with 2.46L engine and Throttle Body Injection, to give a smooth
acceleration under load. Seems to be more pronounced during the lower part
of the power curve. Downhill it seems to have great acceleration. (No
Jokes Please) When it starts up a hill it slows down and depressing the
accelerator pedal seems to make it bog down worse. Depressing the pedal to
the floor seems to really cause it to bog down. If I downshift to a lower
gear and get the RPMs up it seems to be better. But with many hills I have
to go down two or more gears to even get it over the hill. The hills are
not all that great. Have tried changing the Map Sensor, checking the hose
connections around the TBI for vacuum leaks, all hoses for good connections
and proper placement. When I remove the injector from the Throttle Body I
found only one small O Ring at the bottom. (My manual shows two. One near
the top of the body) I tried replacing it but still have same results. Any
suggestions of something I might check and/or have missed? Is there any
computer codes used on this model that might give me some clues as to the
problem? One again thanks for all of your help. Don Smith

Re: 86 Cherokee acceleration problems
Your TBI has a pressure regulator inside it as well as more than one
O-ring. You have an injector, a lower O-ring, a centering ring and an
upper O-ring.
I would recommend a kit for the throttle body. This will give you at
least the right parts for it and it gets a good clean while apart.

Re: 86 Cherokee acceleration problems
What comes in a kit for this Throttle Body Injector rebuild kit. The stores
around here weem to want 75.00 for one and if it only has a couple of "O"
rings I will be upset. Thanks Don

Re: 86 Cherokee acceleration problems
It could have a new injector and maybe the regulator parts, I don't know
for sure.
The kit for the 2 bbl carb is only $20.00 and that has all the gaskets,
accelerator pump, float needle and seat, etc.
Have you changed the gas filter? That should be on the frame rail near
the tank. A plugged one can also cause you top end issues, same for a
dirty air filter.
There also is an air filter on the gas tank that will cause top end bogs
if plugged up. That is a $2.00 emissions canister filter on the bottom
of the charcoal canister. Running with the gas cap open or the tube off
the canister so it sucks air tells fast if this is an issue but/and on
some systems doing that can cause a check engine light to come on that
will go off when you tighten the cap back on.
