my 4.0 is under a yj but came from a '96 Cherokee.
It runs flawlessly on the road but as soon as I take it off road it will run for a while then shut off. then randomly start again, sputtering, then running good, after cranking it for 5 min...
I thought it was the crank position sensor so I replaced it. This last weekend at the flats I ran into the same problem again...
My buddy told me to bleed the fuel rail, and behold, air came out. It ran great until I bounced around going up easy street. Then had to bleed more.
I am running a stock fuel pump and sending unit mounted to a 15gal aluminum RCI fuel cell.
Tank was full, but could the pump still be sucking air in when the gas sloshes around?
Anyone ever had any similar problems?
Trying to keep air out of my fuel lines... Advice is needed.
