get the fat girl outta your trunk

 

have u checked your throttle cable to see if its loose? or clean your injectors?

 

it just started happening today and from doing my research and hearing all these guys haven to buy all these sensors before they figure it out was maken me worry so i havent done anything but what the advance auto parts guy said bc i cant throw money at my jeep for a couple months but if it was the ijectors it would do it cosistently wouldnt it?

 

i aint sure,but u can get a bottle of injector cleaner for $5 and it wouldnt hurt and might clean em and help

 

yea im going to get everything i need to do a complete tune up tommorow and i didnt even think about it but i have a complete xj in my moms back yard that was wrecked but mechanically perfect so im going to go and start switching sensors until i figure out wich one it is but hopefully ill find the problem

 

yea,do that,get ngk spark plugs,there the best and there cheap

 

when did you last put fuel in it? just before the problem?

 

yea realativly speaking right before and a full tank barely last me 2hundred miles

 

ok so today i replaced my distributer cap and button and wires and spark plugs put lucas fuel injector cleaner in and took aprt and used connector cleaner on allll conectors going to the engine and was still having the problem then cleaned my throttle control motor still had the problem then diconected everything leading to the MAP sensor and it seemed like it was idleing rough but i drove it around my neighborhood and nothing then drove the big circle around my neighborhood and she still didnt do the hesitation but im still worried that i didnt fix the problem< does it sound like it could be the MAP sensor or does it seem like i should still change out sensors
