Default Sick jeep xj

Thursday I put gas in my jeep drove it 41 miles ran great then all of a sudden -- it started to run rough and choking itself out. I made it home and replaced the idle control sensor, and the throttle position sensor and it is still running rough. It's a 89 jeep xj - 4.0 liter. Today (Saturday) I replaced the fuel filter and plugs. Monday I will change out my wires. The distributor and rotor look good as the previous owner had already replaced them.

Here is a video of the jeep running...Any advise or ideas is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hey man, before anything else id recommend posting this in the OEM tech talk. It will probably get you more help..

Edit- After watching that vid, Id venture to say thats a fuel delivery issue.. How did the filter look when you took it out? TPS often need adjusting, i know theres a good link to it on here... While your in there replacing things, make sure all grounds points are clean and tight.
