Jeep Stalling
I have a 1996 Jeep Cherokee with about 158K miles. recently it has
started stalling after i drive for a while. It has never stalled when
the engine is cold. When it stalls, the engine just shuts off.
Sometimes it would start right away. but on occasions i would have to
wait for about 5 mts before i give it a try. It has never stalled while
driving at higway speeds [so far!].
Does this sound like CPS issue?
thanks

Re: Jeep Stalling
That could easily be the bad connection on the CPS issue. The best
cleaner for the computer signal plug is electronic contact cleaner but
WD40 will work in a pinch.
The CPS is on the drivers side bell housing and the plug is either on
the intake manifold or over above the dipstick I hear on some. You can
just follow the wires to get to it anyway.

our 96 grand cherokee would stall at idle intermittently.It was due to the
tourqe converter staying locked.We changed the transmission filter and
solved the problem.We usually wind up having to change the filter every
1 -1.5 years.
