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.

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.
