I have an '86 Comanche 2.5L with Throttle Body Injection and a AX4, 4-speed manual. The engine is not the original Comanche engine, but one from a YJ Wrangler from what I would assume is similar in year and function. Anyway, I was driving it yesterday to work and it was doing fine until it warmed up. All of a sudden, it just acted like it wasn't getting gas when I pressed the accelerator. It idled back down and was rough, but as soon as I tried to give it gas, it would spit and sputter. It shut off and then I started it back up and the problem went away, for a little while anyway. I got about 2 miles further down the road and then the same thing. That time, I cut the engine off and restarted it about 10 seconds later. I made it all the way to work from then on without hesitation. On the way home from work, the same thing happened 3 more times.

Anyone have any ideas on what this could be caused by? It has new spark plugs, a clean air filter, fuel injector cleaner and Iso-heet (water remover) in the gas.

Sounds like an o2 sensor issue... Or maybe a TPS adjustment is needed.

Would either or those be an intermittent issue like my issue seems to be?
