97 Wrangler 2.5 9 codes new sensors don't fix the issue
Hey guys I'm working on a 1997 Wrangler 5 speed with the 2.5 (my dad's friends jeep) it shakes like it's only running on two cylinders at idle but smooths out above 1300 rpm and will only make it to 50mph if you are in 3rd gear and wide open throttle. I threw it on my scan tool and it has 9 codes shown in the pictures. I changed the distributor, plugs, and wires for him about two months ago. I replaced the tps and bank one sensor one o2 sensor today and the codes are still there. When I looked at the live readings I seen the tps was showing 13.5% and idle and was only getting up to 75% at wide open throttle, the intake air temperature sensor was showing 110 degrees. I'm not sure what's going on I expected at least some change with the new parts but it's completely the same (I've tried disconnecting the battery) thinking maybe the computer is bad ? Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated!!

Hmmm. Wrangler.
Wrangler?
Oh, yeah. Those are those not-Cherokee Jeeps. The ones that are not covered in the Cherokee forum.
Yeah, I knew I had heard that term before!

Well, the codes are the same, but still, you'll get better help on a Wrangler forum.
Looks like a bunch of sensors are hating life.
There's a Wrangler subforum on jeepforum.com. Might be a good place to try.
