the engine doesn't rev when trying to accelerate, it just sputters.....jumps and bucks when it is bad and i don't press the clutch...I took it to Advance Auto Parts when the check engine light is on and was given the code P0132 which says the O2 sensor is giving off high voltage reading the Advance guy said. what do you think? clutch?

I think it's interesting that you were given an OBDII code (Pxxxx) from a vehicle with an OBDI PCM.
Go back to the instructions in my previous post and pull up the code(s) yourself.
As explained there, the '97 returns two digit codes. Post here what you get.

The only codes showing is the battery has been disconnected recently. We have now changed the rotor, distr. fuel pump and regulator and changed out the gas. It has been a month and now it either wont start or when it starts it dies after a while or dies when we try to take off.

I have an 01 Jeep that I love to drive but it will not start. The motor isn't locked up. It will turn over if you jump the starter but I have no power to the starter from the rely under the passenger side dash. I have tried to jump start it with no luck. No one seems to have clue why it is acting this way. Somebody knows what is going on. Please tell me what in the world is causeing this. I have done everything I know but all the crap that is on these cars now has me at loss.

My first guess would be a bad battery or battery cables. Have you inspected the wiring and connections to ensure everything is tight and that there is no corrosion? Do lights, radio, blinkers work?
 
Have you had the battery tested? Do you have something in your Jeep that is always on that could be a drain for it?

The batt. and all connections are fine. The lights work and the odometer comes on but the gauges don't trip and reset the way they did before. They don't move at all. I have turn apart the wireing harness. Replaced the relay in the dash. Checked the clutch sensor. Nothing. I am at the end of my rope. It's going to be something simple but with all the wireing in this thing, it's a nightmare.

I have a '97 TJ with 72K miles. The check engine light is on and I had the codes read and Im told its the throttle pedal postion sensor and the power steering pressure(has a slight leak at the gearbox). It runs really rich and revs up and down upon a cold start. when I coast say like into a parking spot with the clutch in it occastionaly dies. The I am only getting 8 miles to the gallon with the stock wrangler tires and rims,(it has 4'' lift) it had on 33x12.50 was forced to take off till I can fix the gas mileage. Does anybody know if you can replace the sensor yourself or does it have to set by a mechanic? Any advice would be great I appericate it thanks to all who help.

anther problem by tymerej

i have a jeep wrangler 97 sport, 4.0 liter. my lower radiator hose is leaking and was wondering why. i've replaced it and it was fine for 2 weeks, no leaks. now it has started again, i just took off the new hose and cut about an inch off the top end and put it back on after cleaning it off inside where it connects on both ends.i replaced the spring clamps with screw clamps which the AAP guy gave me. it leaks from the top connection for some reason. the guy at advance auto part gave me the right part, as i called and he double checked on the compter. hmmm, i don't have the money to take it to a shop, any assistance would be most appreciated. thanks, you guys are always helpful and knowledgable.

You SURE it is leaking from the opening? The TJ radiators are NOTORIOUS for leaking at the plastic/aluminum joint. It could be leaking there and running down and LOOKING like it is leaking from the hose.
