Ok, I have an 01' cherokee w/ the 4.0 and auto tranny. It has a brand new alternator and tps other than that the engine has no upgrades. Also the engine only has 58000 miles on it. Has a half tank of gas as well.
The other day I drove to my buddies house and parked it for like 6 hours. It ran perfect before this. When I went to go start it up, I got nothing, everything was dead. So I had my buddy jumper it. When I tried to start it up when jumpered it barely was turning over but got it to start but by pushing on the gas a little. Once my foot got off of the gas it died immediatly. I had to rev it up to keep the engine running. We pulled the alternator and got it tested and it was bad got a new one and still the same problem. So my buddy had another battery installed it, same problem. Thought it might be bad ground, went through everything, same problem. Plugs are only about 6 months old. And even checked the coil rail assembly with an ohmmeter and everything is within tolerance. Am I missing somthing? Im getting frustrated, PLease help me.
Thanks
