Here are my problems. High rev until I put it in gear. When I do it bucks foward or back.(depending on rev or drive). Also when It is running everyonce in a while it has a rough idle and dies once in a blue moon. There is also a buzzing noise coming from my jeep. One last thing.... When make sharp turns my jeep squeaks/chips.
Any ideas on any of this?
It hasnt thrown a code...
I have searched....

I know your 99 is not set up like mu 88 but when this happened to me the motor mount bolts that go into the block had snaped causeing my engine to drop and push up on my accelirator rod, check and see if something is forcing your throttle body open

on the squeek and chirps you might have a u joint going out on one of your front axles and on the buzzing noise where about does it seem to come from ( underneath or up front) and with it running rough and dieing some times it sounds like you might have a misfire

Or it could be your TPS (Throttle Position sensor) is out of wack.. but youll have more symptoms than what you explaining.
Im unsure about ur squick and chip though.. on my Dakota i was the control arm bushings that wore out and was causing the sounds. Plus ball joints went to ****..

High rev is usually cause by a vac leak(meaning you engine is sucking in more air than what it should).. The buck you feel is because of the high idle and dropping it into gear.. Same as a neutral drop when trying to race.. Is it a buzz or more like a hissss??

I replaced my tps a while back and that isnt the cause.
Update: while driving today at about 40mph and 1500rpm it was glitchy... I dont know how else to discribe it

hmm.. testing for vac leaks is usually a dosy for me, but normally just grab a rag and run it across all the vac lines and where they sit on the intake mani.. When the rpm drops to normal youve found your leak. I know there are other ways of doing it but i never have luck with those.. Im trying to think of the buzzing noise but cant pin point wat it could be.. Is there and area of the engine where you hear it??
