I know it's an old post but have you found out the problem. I am having the exact same issue. Already replaced TPS, and the 2 O2 sensors. Problem is still there.
Thank you.

neutral safety switch by fisherpat

It appears that my neutral saftey switch for transmission on my 2000 cherokee 4.0l has gone bad. I had posted earlier saying it was my transmission range sensor and that is not the case. Is it all right to drive with this condition around town until I can get it fixed????

Chris,
I have a 2001 Cherokee, and have the same issue. Have you been able to resolve this, and if so, could you elaborate?
Thanks.

who installed the engine?? try taking it back to them-then napa!!..
--a GREAT trick i learned with vacum leaks is to take carb cleaner,and a "straw"(like on a can of wd40?)
spray around these places that it could be leaking--while the engine is running--if the engine starts stalling-or running faster--THAT'S WHERE YOUR VACUM LEAK IS!!! fixing the leak is the next step..
good luck!!

'98 Cherokee death wobble by larly

Is there a possibility that this is caused by a differential issue? Front Track bar & harmonic balancer replaced. Still doing the death wobble at 53 mph about 35% of the time. Of course, not when a mechanic is present...

Just bought jeep cherokee, is there a secret to changing oil filter-looks a nightmare. Any suggestions would be wonderful, cheers..

Year? Engine size?
There should be plenty of room in there to get at it. Let us know what year and engine and we can answer your question.

Cheers bro its a 1998 2.5 TD. Filter located on left as you look at engine, not a lot of room for manuver as steering shaft lies one inch or so directly underneath !

Aahh, a friend from across the pond.
I never even knew Jeep offered a 2.5 diesel until today so I don't think I'll be able to help you with this one!
Good luck with it.

-a filter should be just like any other filter-it ain't rocket science..if it's the same style as a gas engine(just a spin on filter),invest in a strap wrench-the rubber kind with a plastic handle--lefty-loosey,righty-titey !
--make shure you have the right replacement filter,as being stuck-if this is your only ride,it'll be a long walk back to the parts shop..wet the rubber "O" ring with a dab of oil before you install the new one-kind of like THE DIRECTIONS SAY?..sorry,but get a lot of people asking things that are printed on the box..
never overfill the engine..it's better to run it 1/2 quart low-than over,as the extra oil puts extra pressure,and can damage sealsand more fun things like that..after adding oil,and running engine-to fill the filter,check for leaks,DON'T over-torque the filter,as that will make getting it off the next timeextra difficult..that "extra" twist-just to make shure it's tight-COULD crush the filter's seal,and make it leak..spin it down till it contacts the seat,then3/4 of a turn(use the labels on the filter to judge),and it should be fine..
-----
--your 1 inch clearence should be just enough to get the old one out,and the new one on..
good luck-and let us know ifin it worked or not..
