Any one have a good suggestion for a shop in Lakewood/JBLM area? Having issues that I cant seem to solve, and tired of throwing parts at it. I'm looking for a shop that is good with the Renix system. Its for a 90 XJ 4.0 auto. Thanks.

well was none running when i go it. Got it running for a while but now wont start it seems to flood out. The fuel injectors/rail buzzs hums I assume its the injectors pulsing. If I disconnect the fuel pump it will fire for a minute till if runs out of fuel. It has new MAP, CPS, coolant temp sensor, injectors, fuel pressure regulator, plugs wires, fuel filter ignition switch, and improved grounds and cleaned factory grounds. I post in the tech forum and did all the suggestions I received there. Just baffled now and need an expert...

How about the O2 Sensor. Sounds like this poor Jeep doesn't even have one. Like the computer has no idea how rich or lean to make the mixture.
@ Mehoff have you or a friend used auburn car repair and offroad? Do you know of any place on the Eastside?
I'm having issues with my 96 Cherokee and live in Redmond area. The shop I've gone to in the past hasn't been able to "replecate" the issue I've described & I've have 2 recent instances where it cranks over but just stalls out. I finally get it started but the idle is very irratic accompanied by 1 or 2 engine backfires. I've had the O2 sensor & TPS recently replaced. The irratic idle has been going on for awhile now, but the hard start just started with the icy cold temps and when it warms up the idle smooths out. I was also considering replacing MAP, idle air control valve & crankshaft position sensor, any wisdom would be appreciated.
