I went to this website and looked up your code

http://engine-codes.com/p0132_jeep.html

While trouble shooting a no-start issue on my own jeep (96 4L/aw4) I found that my upstream o2 wiring harness had a couple of wires with bare metal from getting hot. The harness is very close to the exhaust on the #1 cylinder. I replaced sections of bad wire and continued working on my original problem. From what I have read if that harness gets damaged by heat off of the exhaust manifold it might cause the code you are seeing.

Just my two cents.
