temp does not get hot when it dies.. going to also look at the cam sencer too.. have read that might be the main cause and the best one to start swapping 1st

And a temp sensor has nothing to do with how itll run... Unless its failed and you overheat... Lol... If ita failed it will leave the gauge at zero forever...

Now just try to start you Jeep...... see no start... you can confuse and get it to start but that's not what were trying to do. The coollent temp (the one in front) tells the computer how hot how much choke and a few other things. I've had two Jeeps that this has gone out on..... you need to research this a little more before making yourself look dumb posting crap.....
Thought he had a renix which doesnt carry that sensor... Looks like hes got a 91 though... Dunno where I read that... So relax and chill on the needle...
