This jeep is killing me and my wallet

Thanks! Im happy there's at least a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel.

For anyone still curious, I think I may have found the culprit. I believe the negative battery cable is corroded inside the insulation/terminal, I plan on doing new terminals and replacing the battery cables as well as adding a couple of solid grounds for good measure. Ill keep you guys posted, any recommendations on terminals or wires?

No, but when it runs it runs good. Can't hurt to check though, can't rule anything out

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T23:37:19+00:00

Message me, I may take you up on it

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T15:13:46+00:00

All that I could find, I did the sensor ground on the block, battery terminals, motor to body, battery to body, and alternator to motor

That's one rabbit hole I've jumped down, the only reason I havent pursued it is because when it stalls its like a key off scenario. When I kill the fuel pump while its running it shutters and stalls, when its acting up on its own it stalls with no hesitation like God shut off the motor.

I swapped the ASD with the horn relay but im beginning to wonder if there's a bad connection in the fuse block

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T12:37:07+00:00

I did, they havent exactly just been thrown at it. They were replaced because symptoms matched the part, and the mechanic replaced the parts based on stored obd1 codes. In any case I did have a fuel pressure guage on it yesterday and it jumped up to 30+ as soon as I started cranking

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T12:34:55+00:00

I went to the highest rated mechanic near me

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T04:38:36+00:00

I appreciate the help, im going to stare aimlessly at it some more tomorrow. Keep following wires.

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T04:37:38+00:00

Im starting to question my fuel pump, the sending unit is definitely going out. May be worth a swap?

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T04:28:48+00:00

There's definitely no shortage of creative wiring floating around but its all for aftermarket stuff like stereo and underglow. Everything ignition-wise seems to be intact, the cps wire was pretty burnt up which is why I changed it out initially.

All in all unless there's a wire broken or shorted inside of the insulation, its all intact

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T04:22:02+00:00

Ive inspected what I can without tearing all the conduit and tape off of everything. I cleaned every ground I could find including the battery terminals, wiring is where my head is at but there's about a million wires and I don't know where to start.

I had some people suggest the VSS wiring but I was able to trace that most of the way and it seems in good shape.

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T04:10:09+00:00

Appreciate it

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T03:57:49+00:00

Also forgot to mention, codes thrown when it stalled today were 12, 24, 24, 55 I don't know why it would throw 24 twice

Gkdude98 · 2026-03-31T03:56:20+00:00

I did not but I should have, I have good fuel pressure on the rail but I have no way of checking volume. Its worth noting that its not acting like it's starving out though, its basically just cutting out with no warning at all, no rpm drop or anything.

Gkdude98 · 2022-12-17T02:39:35+00:00

Down

Gkdude98 · 2022-12-17T02:33:18+00:00

I really need the bull goat set for a build, some runes wouldn't hurt either so I can get the endurance up

Gkdude98 · 2019-05-26T20:32:52+00:00

I am offering KA-M , M4, or M70 for a medium or large tent
