Hello


The Engine and Automatic Transmission (not applicable to manual transmissions) in this vehicles drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. Also always check fuel pressure for correct spec for your make and engine type.

SOURCE: car stops running after 15 minutes

P1446 reads, manufacturer control auxiliary emission controls. Not positive but a look at the fuel cap( see if it is twisting and securing correctly), check the vacuum lines in the engine compartment (for damage), could be related to the evap. system.

SOURCE: overheating when i stop up 30 minutes and it's back to normal when push the accelerator

this sound like either the fans or fan is not coming on or not performing like it should, or coolant system is clogged or low on coolant. if you have electric fans turn the a/c on are they both on ? if you have a clutch fan attached to the motor when the a/c on and engine at operating temp put your hand over engine is the fan realy pushing air out? if not its bad . you can check the temp of each side of the radiator to see if the is a difference this will tell you if their is a clogg. so check fans and check coolant system for a leak , for proper circulation , when was the last time you had the coolant system flushed ? and gm uses a different coolant then other makes if someone put regular green in with the dexcool it will become corrosive and can eat blades on water pump not allowing it to function like it should pumping coolant andit will clogg the system.

Engine stops after 5 minutes of running

It sounds like the engine might be shorting itself out. make sure you take it in for a routine check-up with an auto mechanic every 6-8 months or even more frequently. It could be a problem with the degradation of wiring in the car's interior. your best bet is to take it into a shop.

Cherokee will not start until i hold down on the gas as soon as i take foot off it dies immediatly

Might have to reset the codes on the computer. Take the + battery cable off the battery and reconnect it afer 5 minutes. Next try to start the engine without holding the gas petal down, it should start and run rought till the computer resets itself. If engine stops, restart the engine and hold the gas petal down and give it enought gas so it will run smooth, it may take 5 minutes or so for it to smooth out and run at idle speed. If this did not fix the problem, check for a vaccum hose that may be off some where on the engine

I replaced the fuel pumps and filter and tried to start the car and it sounded like the fuel pumps were not coming on so I ran jumper wires from an external battery to them and the car fired right up. I...

there might be a helper pump in the tank also and after 5 minute of running it needs help getting the fuel to the primary pump that you have jumped out under the body near the rear tire and it stalls. both pumps are controlled by that relay so whatever is stopping the first one is probably stopping the second one!

i had one in my shop once and it would run fine for days then out of no where it would die and not run! the socket that the relay sit's in behind the battery was bad , the pins were wreck so i changed that and then it was fine for a while then did it again afer tracing that harness all the way back i found several wires broke and rubbed through! it wasn't easy it was burried and had to open the man harness right up wide and took along time! hopefully this help in some way!
