2000 cherokee acelleration problems
Hey everybody im new to the site and new to jeeps so im hoping this may be an easy problem. I just picked up a 2000 cherokee with a 4.0 and noticed if it put the pedal to the floor it bogs and almost stalls, if i give it gas gradually it goes fine and has plenty of power. I did a fuel pressure test and it held steady at 50 psi and pulled the plugs amd they looked fine. I was leaning twoards a coil or a tps but wanted to get some other opinions before i sunk money into it. The motor also has a ticking or rattling sound in the top end that sort of comes and goes. I would really appreciate any help, thanks

Have you had it scanned for pending codes? Is this same when the engine is hot or cold?
Top end noise is kinda normal hehe, could be crud built up or crappy oil or an actual problem.
