hello all i have a 96 cherokee and the other day i replaced the radiator due to a small hole leaking antifreeze all over, every since this happened my jeep has been randomly dying on the highway and then today it starts the dies almost instantly unless i hold the gas down and even then sometimes it dies. deffinitly seems like an electrical issue. i did a full tune up about 3 months ago and i replaced the CPS about a year ago. ive read a lot of threads similar to this but no one seems to have the answer. any help is much appreciated. thanks

 

ive been thinking and id like to add that a week ago i replaced my transfer case so i dropped the crossmember and lowered the transmission and engine about 6 inches, could i have maybe pulled or stretched the wires on the cps???? im almost leaning towards this but before i go through replacing it again itd be nice to ahve some input. thanks

 

did it leak onto your distributor? thats what happened to me, well, my cam position sensor since i have coil packs. but it fried it and it started doing that.

 

thanks for the input dixie but i found the problem. the wiring harness for the CPS was actually resting and rubbing up against the exhaust manifold and it was grounding out, moved the wire away from it and whatya know it works great! ill have to just run it a few days and see if thats what was causing it but im 99% sure it was seeing as if i manually ground the wire out on the exhaust it shut down just like it was before.
