just a engine miss, like a miss fire but it does not sound like it's losing power or anything, just like a slip, and no metal clunk

I THINK I FOUND THE PROBLEM, I think it is a miss fire, cause on the way to work I was chilling in a parking lot, and my jeep kept going down in rpm's like a miss fire would and it kinda jerks a lil, so I think that what it is, anyone else have any ideas before I clean them, or just buy new ones?

It's either bad wires&plugs or CPS failure.

Okay, I'll pull the plugs and see if they got build up and junk and I'll clean them, and if it continues, chould I replace the plugs or the CPS?

nananana, CPS is last, distributor cap, rotor, wires and plugs first.

if it's missing, i mean a "dry" miss it is a spark problem, if it is more like bogging it's a fuel prob.

Its not bogging, like it stays running and all of that just looses a rpm while sitting and shakes a lil
