and just so no one gets confused

A.I.S. is not Automatic idle sensor
jeep has some funny labels on things A.I.S. is air idle speed motor

but any one that has experience will call it IAC idle air control
because that what it is
its not a sensor it doesn't sens any thing it controls

well idle air wasnt the problem it was the TPS

started it up it ran at 3000 so turned it off after my teacher said clean off TPS did it and fired it up again and it was totally fine. I plan on getting a new TPS in a few weeks but for now i think it will be okay.

thanks for your help
