Hey,
My Jeep will start with hesitation and stall as soon as I let off the gas, it's a 99 4.0L so it's fuel injected, and it has a non serviceable fuel filter in the gas tank, do you think it's something to do with the computer or a temperature sensor? Any ideas would be welcomed, I don't know anymore. Plugs, wires, distributor, are all working just fine. Doesn't matter if it's cold or not, just sometimes it does it sometimes it doesn't

Well for the last couple days my Jeep has been doing this weird thing with the power locks. Ill hit the lock button...to unlock our lock...and all I get is a clicking noise from the passenger side front door. Eventually it'll start working again.
Fuses? Or is it the power lock motor?

How the heck do you get at the upper bolt on the rear bumper of an 88 or 89 Jeep Cherokee? I had to cut off the old bumper bolts thru the top of the bumper with a grinder but intalling the new ones will really be a challenge. It is up inside that narrow channel bracket and you can't get it from above.

So it just acts up at idle? no power loss at cruise speed or other sympthoms? When the engine is warm does it still stall at idle?
