Ok, here's my conclusion...

I was thinking I may need that as well. Do you think this is the source of my high idle though? I thought as long as you have an upstream o2 it will run fine but still throw a code for the...
O2 sensor is at the front of the exhaust pipe, before the muffler.
No cat, just pipe with a muffler.
So I was just out tinkering with the wiring, everything looked good so I got to thinking... I disconnected the plug from the TPS while running and it instantly started idling back down where it...
I'll go check into the wiring, the connector looked good when I replaced it. I also removed and cleaned the entire TB.
Up-stream has been changed twice within the last 20 miles or so.
Changed the IAC previously while working a stumble issue so that's pretty much new as well.
So the Jeep is idling around 1100-1300 RPM, from the time it starts to the time its warm and I shut it off. Other than that, it's running well.
Not sure if it's related but, I'm getting a CEL...
4.3LXJ... you are my hero. You are 2 for 2 with me already haha! Also thanks to the others who had suggestions!
Went down to AZ for the scan, came back with 3 O2 codes! (I guess my CEL bulb is...
I will get it down there tonight to get it read, I'm sure there are codes on it by the way it's running but I think the light is out of the CEL... We'll see what it pulls up.
O2 sensor sounds like a good option! Previous owner said he did all the normal tune-up things, but never said anything about the o2 sensor so that very well could be it.
As for the exhaust, it...
From what I can tell, it seems to get worse the longer I drive it. It always fools me, I'll do something to it and take it out for a test where it acts great at first and then a little sputter, and...
Hey guys, just bought this 96 XJ, and it's having a hell of a time idling, and driving. All is good for the first few minutes, then as I'm just cruising along it will start to buck, jump, and...
Thanks guys, I got the stereo all hooked up last night. Turns out that black wire with the spade connection was the ground, all I had to do was attach my black harness wire to it and all operates as...
Is there a reason they ran a single wire from the ACC fuse location to the stereo? I thought the harness already took care of that?
Wow, if I could hug you guys I would! I can see this place is going to come in handy!
There must have been something crazy going on with that wiring harness. I went to Walmart and picked up a new...
Forgot to add my picture above. It appears to be plug and play, but the PO did made a mess of it so I'm tempted to try a new install kit, but I don't know if that would even make a difference?
Thanks 4.3LXJ! I'm hoping it's that easy. I kind of figured they tapped into the wrong wire. I'm a little confused about which wire could be my problem so I took a pick in hopes someone could...
Alright fellas, I just bought this Jeep and once I got home and drove it in the dark I found a very interesting problem.
