1993 V8 runs rough after 30 minutes
Just bought my 9th Jeep(in possesion, #15 total) last Friday, a 1993 Dark Green Limited 318 Grand, $300, blown out drivers front tire, smashed passengers side lower control arm, and a engine problem that the previous owner described almost perfect. After 30 minutes of run time, regardless of ambient temp or what kind of driving, could be idle, She starts running real rough. Misfire, wont rev above 1500Rpm in neutral, will barely drive unless down hill. Runs like a Champ, up until the 30min mark. The pervious owner has replaced the obvious, and says His certified mechanic father thinks its the ECU. 1993 ECUs are not resined well enough, and when heated, connections pull loose, He says. There Is a collector leak on the ECu, passenger side, Right below....There Are Alot of new parts under the hood, including CPS. Old TPS and MAP though.

Old fart with a wrench
Oh, yeah. Isn't there a gasket on the bottom of the intake plenum that sometimes is a problem?
