1995 Grand Cherokee stall issue
Hi all,
My jeep has a v-8 engine which starts fine but once it is put into gear, at idle, it tends to decrease in rpm until it dies or i hit the gas pedal. I have done some reading on here to no avail. Hopefully it is not a one of a kind random problem. Any help, or if i left out any info needed, please reply.
Thanks

I have not checked those yet, but another thing to note is that it seems to die when accelerator is pressed, even in neutral. Also a strong smell of gas, so that would explain why it is flooding and hard to start after stall. Will the IAC or TPS cause these problems? If so i will start there. Thanks for the help

Did not have3 check engine light, but did cycle key to pull codes. got 32. not sure what that is. But i did pull the IAC as the other poster suggested, and now it is running much better. I cleaned it with throttle body cleaner, was full of black gunk. Thanks for all the help guys
