Thank goodness for this forum.
Oh, where to begin....
First my mothers 98 xj has had a very high idle (1,200 - 900 rpm). I was thinking it was the tps or throttle plate itself sticking so I used a little oil on the spring and shaft to see if that would help. I think it deffinitly made a difference but it still will not idle lower than 800 rpm.
The other weird thing I have noticed is that the brakes are very firm and do not have any power kind of like the booster is not working right. I did read somewere that the booster could have torn and that could cause the problems but I dont know.
The jeep does have 193,000 miles and is used for hauling hay wagons around as well as other stuff.
