Hmmm. Battery cables and/or grounds?Originally Posted by straws
Well I can't find a vacuum leak to save my life. BUT I remembered a detail that I realized I didn't include in the original post. When the jeep died (both times) the engine quit but all the electrical stayed on and when trying to start it up it wouldn't even crank. So does that point more in the direction of CPS or something else?

Yeah, mine would do weird **** [stuff] like that before I replaced my battery clamps and wires. I thought it was possessed for a while. Originally Posted by RocketMouse

Alright I will go clean those up. I was wanting to do a main wiring upgrade anyway and start fixing the nightmare of accessory cables the previous owner installed.
