    I have the same problem with my 1996, I will be driving and it will just stop running. It is not a fuel problem because everything is newer or the computer because it is newer. Any ideas??

    I have the same problem with my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, as described above. In the morning,my Jeep will start up fine, but while driving for a little bit, it will stall out. I pull over to the side and it starts right back up. I have replaced my fuel filter and it does the same thing. I have also put quite a bit of fuel cleaning liquid, from STP, to Preston complete fuel system cleaner, to Lucas in the vehicle. None of it has helped, it is doing the same thing. The other day i sat in my truck for about 30mins with it on and it just cut off. It would not start back up. I let it sit for about an hour and it started right up, but i got on the freeway and after driving about 10miles it cut off on me again. It acts as if it does not have enough gas, but it is full of gas.

    where is the filter located

  • purrfct1 Mar 14, 2009

    My 1995 JGC (190K) was running fine when all of a sudden I started having the following problem:

    Car starts fine. Runs fine. After about 30 to 45 mins at highway speeds...

    1: When at speed if I step on the gas the engine stumbles like I'm out of gas...
    2: If I back off the accelerator it keeps running but problem persists.
    3: If I shut off the car for about 5 minutes, it starts up fine on first try. Another 30 minutes later... same stumble and problem.

    I've changed the fuel filter twice. No help. This car has no seperate pressure regulator. Relay seems fine.

    Could this be the fuel pump?

    I also have a whining sound (sounds like an ELECTRONIC servo operating when I try and accelerate. It makes the sound for about 3 seconds then stops. But will reoccur often. Someone told me vaccum at the evap cannister?

    Please help!!!

I had a similar problem on my Jeep Grand Cherokee. I had to change out my Cranshaft position sensor. I would try that first.

I've checked the evap can and I had a disconnected vac hose from the fuel tank. Reconnected it and prob not fixed. I also noticed a hairline crack in the vac line to the cruise control actuator. Changed the line. Nothing. Then I read the screws holding the PCM to the firewall may be shorting out the PCM when it gets hot. Thats my next investigation... Someone said to back out the screws and have a look if you notice any charring or visual 'issues' with the PCM printed circuit board?

My '91 GMC Jimmy suddenly died like it was out of gas. It restarts, but idles rough, sputters and pulses. Plenty of fuel comes out of the injectors, but it wants to stall and die.

My 1999 jeep wrangler will stall as your driving. it acts like it ran out of gas. after sitting it will start right up. do you think its the cranshaft position sensor?

Could be the cps, however it also sounds a lot like a failing fuel pump. Check to see if you can hear the pump running right after it stalls and you turn the key back on. If not, the pump is beginning to bind.

My jeep will not start all of a sudden. When gas

Check the fuel filter, and i would suggest replaceing the fuel in the tank. It only takes about a month for gas to start to deterioate and if it sat that ling there is probally some junk in the tank. witch probally caused the fuel filter to plug up.

1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Stalls out,engine quits running

since its a 1997 your jeep has EFI, electronic fuel injection. The most probable reason for your troubles would be the injectors or a problem with the computer controling them, not allowing enough gas to be pushed into the cylinder causing stalling or lack of power, also too much gas iin the cylinder can lead to back firing and stalling. This would also explain the reason it takes so long to start back up some times, all the excess gas in the cylinder is flooding the motor and u have to wait till the gas disipates till the engine will turn over.
