Weird problems lately, 97 cherokee, 4.0, auto, When I go to start it up first time in the morning and drive out of my driveway, the speedometer intantly goes past the 100 mph mark, in fact it is usually buried straight down, Im usually doing about 5 or 10 mph at this point. Then it seems to shift really wierd, and if I try to accelerate it seems like it cuts out, and the rpms go down to about 300. It accelerates very slow and seems like its going to die. It is almost undriveable it cuts out so bad.
But, heres the kicker, it only does the above symptoms for the first mile or two, then it seems like it remembers everything and then shifts when its supposed to and everything, even the speedometer starts working again, (kind of, it likes to flutter around a bit) I thought I might be able to reset the computer so I tried that a few days ago, and that helped for a few days, but its back to doing it again. Im pretty sure a sensor is going bad but not really sure which one. any help?
