Cylinder 2 is misfiring and I'm getting a open circuit code for cylinder 1 and for 2. I replaced all the plugs gaped they correctly and added new wires new distributor new rotor and new ignition cool and new stronger battery all the other plug are working ok. Cylinder 1 2 and 3 are week while 4 5 6 are running strong

Exact codes please. With OBD, the devil is in the details.
Google the codes. If the code is say P0320 google search on "P0320 + Jeep"
You are likely to get good information on others who have experienced your problem.
Do you have exact compression numbers? Spec for the 4.0 is 120-150, with no more than a 30 psi variation between cylinders.
You need data here and it needs to be specific and based on TESTING.
