Ok well im having problems with my MJ. It has never ran right. I dont drive it on the road.
I asked a similar question on ComancheClub a month or 2 ago and I didnt get very much past a bad battery.
4.0
Ba/10
NP231
D30
D35
Push the petal it lags and studders and then after a couple seconds it kinda catches up. Then it will run fine and go back to doing it.
It will idle but it will kinda go really slow then catch back up and then go back down and about cut off then revv itself back up.
It has not cat. Has a super loud thrush muffler.
Brand new plugs
Working fuel pump
Any ideas?
And as of now it doesnt even have power. Ive put 3 different good working batterys and i dont get any lights. Good cable ends. Anything that would cause absolutely no power?
Thank you and all help will be appriciated.

No I have not. But I will. It kinda seemed to me like it was the TPS or a vaccume issue.
Any way to check these?
By lights I mean dash and everything. No electronic power. Nothing happens when key is turned.
But no I have not.

Check the MAP while you're at it
Any way to check these?
Starter relay is by the battery a circut tester will tell you if power is getting through. A bad starter soilinoid will be what to look for pull it off and bench test the starter. Ignition switch you're gonna have to drop the column and see if it's burned up.
