Can some one pls help me with this???? I was driving down the road one day and the jeep just dies. I wait about an hour or so then i can drive away, so i go online and get an idea what is going on. So i change the crank shaft censer and it worked for a few days. Now it will not even fire up in my drive way. Can some one pls take the time to help me with this one. MY email is jamesness2009@live.com if you can find the time to email me the info
