Well we took the jeep out today since i didn't get to play much yesterday(work), so we played for about an hr and i hit a big mud hole and it died, so we thought maybe it sucked up some water in the air box and when we finally got pulled out and checked it, there wasn't any water, and after that it couldn't stay running and it kept dying and we though it was the fuel pump going out. Well i had to take my friend up to the house and we were going good and it started cutting out and i made it a few feet and it acted like it wasn't getting enough gas, if i held it to the floor it was going to die and it would idle until it died and would start up again. so my dad pulled me to the house and on the trailer, SO does anybody no what it could be if you have had the same problem. Thanks

 

Check for water in the distributor cap.

 

x2

 

okay im gonna have to check that 2morrow

 

Check your fuel pump relay ballast right by the air box ,I was working on my rig and had the air box apart ,well when I got everything back together it would start but die like It's running out of gas. It turns out that I knocked off one of the wires on the ballast ( a long white rectangle with two wires on it ) it would start then run out of gas .

 

yea its definitely the distributor if there's no water in the airbox. make sure the cap is completely dry cus one drop of water will make in run like ****

 

x2 check this as well.

 

okay i will check it cuz thats what it acts like it doing
