TPC in 96 Cherkee
Hello. My brother owns a 96 Laredo with an automatic trans. 4wd. 4.0
engine. Does this have a dual tps? Would this cause the engine idle to
drop and stall, as well as prevent it from shifting out of first gear?
He recently power washed the engine. Any thoughts??
Thanks,
Greg

It just has the regular TPS sensor.
drop and stall can be a dirty IAP (Idle Air Passage) and
crudded up IAC (Idle Air Controller).
http://revbeergoggles.com/tb/tb.html
Usually a toothbrush to clean the throttle body, around and
under the throttle plate, then slowly spray TB cleaner into
the idle air passage. Might have to do it several times,
spray, then run, then spray, then run, etc.
One note of caution. Never run the motor with the idle air
motor removed from the throttle body, the pintle will shoot
out and you will have to buy a new IAC.

What about the not shifting out of first gear part. It was fine
yesterday.

Check the transmission fluid level. Most Jeep transmissions are
real touchy when it comes to being low. Also check to make sure
it's not milky, powerwashing can get water into places it should
not be. I prefer using degreaser and a garden hose on low just
for that reason.
Idle problems can also cause shifting issues.

Re: TPC in 96 Cherkee
Yes, you do have a dual TPS and the classic power wash symptoms. WD40
is the best for this, it will displace the water in the plug and socket
of the TPS connection.
