94 Grand Cherokee Stalling issue by binners

Hi. I have recemtly replaced my radiator. That was an experience all in itself....however, the jeep dies when I am sitting still, or reversing. I thought I had gotten bad gas, so I put in Heet (twice). It still dies....what can I do? I can't take it to AutoZone for a diagnostic test because there is no "check engine light" on or any type of error message. It's driving me crazy!! I rely on my vehicle for my job. Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks, Robin

By the way, its a 4.0 Also, when the gas level get to 1/4 tank, that is when the rough idle/stall occurs. I just ran and filled up, and it still idles low, but even with the a/c running, it does not stall! Very frustrating!! Any help, please. Thanks! Robin

Hello My jeep does the same thing. Sputters when start in the morning. Restart and it runs fine and smooth.. Have you came to a solution yet?

After having a mechanic look at it several times, it was the computer. A new one costs around $800 but my husband found a refurbished one off the internet. You send them info and they adjust it to your car. The only thing is you need to send your old one back to them within a certain time frame. It cost us $300 for this and it worked. However, when he installed the computer the next day the gas/mileage and electric windows stopped working?? The car runs great however we don't know what's wrong. I guess that is on a separate computer that only a dealership can touch. Hope everything works out!

If you have a mechanic go to them and ask about the computer. It may be the fuel pump. Have them check. Our computer went. We bought a refurbished on the internet because a brand new one costs $800 with out installation. It only costs $300 for a used one but the catch is you need to send them your old computer back to them. It worked out great and the car runs fine. Hope this helps!

Electric problem? or another computer?? by lisamarier

We go the computer replaced but the next day, my 2000 grand jeep cherokee with aprox. 145,000 miles, the spedometer and gas controls went crazy and they all stopped working along with the electric windows! All the lights work and the radio but our mechanic told us we needed to take it to a dealer because it's a GM computer that we can't do ourselves. Has anyone else had this issue? Don't want to put any more $$ into this. We just got a sticker after toying with new lightbulbs but want to get at least 8 more months of use before we get rid of it. Thanks for your suggestions!
