04 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
4.0 166,000 miles
New Jersey Vehicle lots of rust
I bought this vehicle with the intention of teaching my son body work. It has developed an intermittent stalling problem. Before I start throwing parts at it……..
Most mornings after about five minutes of run time, it dies. Most of the time it starts right back up again. When it won’t start up again, if I takeoff the gas cap and put it in neutral it always starts right back up again. Some days it doesn’t do it at all. Most days it only does it once, some days multiple times. Somedays days it stumbles but doesn’t shut all the way off. It seems to do it most frequently after a hard turn. It usually doesn’t pop a code, twice it has thrown a code for an evap leak. It seems to he idling low, 600 RPM ish, also sometimes running rough at idle. It does have a remote start unit installed. I have been driving it hoping it would show me the problem but so far it’s just getting weirder.
Where would you start? TPS? Vapor lock? Fuel system? crank position sensor? Electrical system? Tannerite?
Thanks in advance
