I believe you disconnect the gnd on the battery and turn on the headlights. That drains all residual power from computer.

yes, d/c the batt or while the old ones out and havnt got the new one in yet, turn your lights on, or hold the key in the start possy for a few seconds. but the headlights is easier.

let the car idle for at least 5min 10 min after resetting the comp as it has to relearn eveerything

we are having similar,xj 97 cherokee stalls and restarts (or not). we have replaced fuel filter,fuel pump,air flow control, plugs,distributor cap, rotor button,crank sender, battery, coil,catalytic converter, still stalling. have noticed ignition is a bit loose and if you wriggle key while running, it can stall.has anyone had ignition causing stalling?

[Shiggins]

Is there something to buy that will test the battery? Instead of just buying a new one?

Take the battery into a retailer.. Autobahn, super cheap, bursons, repco, all should have battery testers... I know repco definitely does.
