We have a 97 4.0L GC Laredo with about 150,000 mi that is experiencing the random idling and stalling that seems to be an ongoing problem. We replaced the PCN about a year ago for the same problem and it seemed to take care of it. Within the last 4-6 weeks, the problem has returned. I have cleaned the contacts and used the tie wraps to stabilize the plugs. I have just been told by the shop that currently has it that Chrysler previously had a kit available for the replacement of the PCN plugs and that if the 3 were replaced for $720 ($195 parts, $525 labor for cut and splice) that they guaranteed it would fix the problem (yeah sure). Having searched the jeep forums extensively, I have not read anything about a kit available from Chrysler or that the plug replacement was performed. While the vehicle is in really good shape, I don't really want to invest what I think is about 20-25% of what the vehicle is currently worth, even with their "guarantee". Your assistance and feedback is appreciated

Didn't even look at the link and not sure how electrically inclined you are (but it's prolly just cut and splice like you said), but that's a lotta' money for a couple edge connectors and some butt splices.......just sayin
