Default Throttle Problems

96 Cherokee 6cyl 4.0
I cleaned the throttle body, replaced the TPS & cleaned the Idle Air Control. What next?
Some people say check the vacuum lines anything else please?
It idles at 2, stalls sometimes at stop signs. jolt's in 1st when driving slow. I have to rev it to at least 3 before i shift or it wants to die.

Maybe check your NSS ( neutral safety switch) I think it can cause problems shifting, also take a look at you exhaust manifold, a cracked one can lead to all different problems.

I had the same problem. I had a few loose intake manifold bolts. After tightening them down she ran fine. It would never hurt to check. I always shoot carb cleaner to check for vacuum leaks.

Hope that helps.
