I'm new to the world of Jeeps and have just bought a 1995 Jeep Cherokee Classic with 160,000km. It went fine while test driving and ran really well, but it seems to have now developed a problem where you'll be cruising at between 1200 and 1800rpm and it will miss very badly for a while and then go away when you get above the 1800rpm. It doesn't happen all the time, but is becoming more frequent than when I first got it (a day ago).
Is this most likely to be a fuel problem or an electrical problem? I had a similar problem with my ford Falcon it turned out to be a faulty wiring loom. I really don't want to go through it again. If it is a fuel problem, what kind of fuel filter does the Cherokee take?
Welcome
I assume you bought it privately? It could be a crack in your distrubuter cap? That happened to me with a honda and took ages to find,
good luck
Do you have the check engine light coming on at all? I would check your codes to narrower it down. Check my site on how to do the key off on three times trick to read them.
