New Problem...Engine Racing on startup
Hey folks,
Hate to wear out my welcome but I am stumped. I got the wrangler all put back together, new o-rings for the injectors, all buttoned up nice and tight. I crank the engine and it goes to full throttle, won't release. Have to shutt it off immediately. I thinking I may have screwed something up when I cleaned up the intake manifold with carb cleaner, maybe hosed a sensor. Any guesses? FYI...99 TJ with the 4.0, 5 speed...if that helps. Thanks.... Jerry S. |

Clean your throttle position sensor connection.

Somewhere the intake manifold has caught on the header flange, for
a giant intake leak. God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Jerry Slaughter wrote: > > Hey folks, > > Hate to wear out my welcome but I am stumped.

You called it Bill. Loosened the bolts, re-aligned the intake manifold ant torqued down those bolts. Runs like a champ now. I do believe I picked up a few horses in the process. Didn't realize how poorly it was running these last few months. I can even hear the radio again...when the top is on. Thanks for all the help again. |
