was this a hack job?> cutting wires. (cutting harness wires?) or did you use those nice install kits with the connector pig tails that find the factory harness connector. if you messed it up, only the FSM can save you now. read the schematics. see ZJ here http://www.jeep4x4center.com/knowledge-base/index.htm?utm_source=cj#service no electrical tape allowed (heat shrink) no wire nuts (horror to max on cars) no cannibal splices. (the cut in to factor wires, nasty they are) or it can be bad.

run the fault codes and check for canister purge valve solenoid fault . IF the filter is blocked it stays blocked . What you have is a problem that when the engine requires sufficient fuel there isn't enough and so it dies . After stopping what ever is causing the shortage is relaxed and so it starts and goes until the problem unit is activated again (Vacuum in the fuel tank)

called phantom drains. use any ammeter to find what path is causing drain. work on all cars, trains ,ships and aircraft. ive done the big ones, Ships. (complex) http://www.fixkick.com/drain/drain.html

this is called misfire. what engine, options,? 4L, ? what? misfire can happen at many operational mode. parked, driving , at any time. so when does yours miss. only at idle, cruise , accel. , wide open throttle (or all times) does it miss hot engine. or cold or both. IS THE CEL lamp out running? (but for sure on key on, not started.) does the engine reach and old 180F more more.. it must, or the . thermostat is bad. fix that first on all cars. made. first. if all that is ok, i then scan the ECU.

Does it come on when your driving. Or is it all the time check fuses and church oil level

please post a real question , the above is not, its a noun. a car.

U Are posting a Toyota, issue in the JEEP section, huh? not too many rice burners here, yah think\? when is stop. the brake slides, (tires) or foot off pedal.?????? if the tires slide , find a road with no ICE, or buy a jeep , LOL if not on ICE, that is bad brakes, get em' fixed. brakes that grabp or stick or lock are a gross danger to mankind EVERYONE, stay off the road until fixed. PLEASE.

Put a multimeter on dc. Place the probes on the battery terminals. You should see between 13.2 and 14.8 volts with the engine running. Do this at idle and while you rev the engine too be sure the voltage regulator is not under or over charging the battery

a jeep Silverado? is this a motor swap? franken jeep. (blue box says Cherokee)_ just one? coil? or 2? a key question. that..... any coil at anytime can burn up. this is called old age or entropy. nothing lasts for ever and for sure in a red hot engine bay. if a 2nd one burns up,that means the dwell is too high dwell is coil charge time. with EFI car,s this is closely controlled at all times !!! but there is this part called and ignitor. that can short (replaced points from IN-THE-DAY) if the ignitor shorts, the coil primary will burn up. fast. key on. to get help, post what engine you have, chev offers many as an option and they all work differently (diff, EFI)

run fault codes to check for cam/ crank sensor/ Check that the cam shaft is turning over (broken timing belt)

Year make model engine size

The front portion of the reservoir has fluid used for the front brakes which provide the majority of the vehicles stopping power. There is a valve that is supposed to shift to isolate the front and rear brakes when this occurs but it doesn't always work as designed. You have lost all the fluid in the front brake system. This is due one of these possible issues: Broken brake line Broken brake hose from line to caliper Leaking caliper seal You need to find and repair the leak, refill and bleed the front brake system to get the vehicle back in service. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IN ITS CURRENT STATE!!!

get the FSM and read it. or , go to any transmission major parts house. and get the book or CD on your exact transmission btw, this is the first post for this in 10,000 posts.. and the most hard to answer. only about 1 in 300 million drivers ever do this....
