Just recently bought my 1997 Jeep Wrangler.

Works great, Just seems every now and then there is a miss in the engine.
When im driving slow it doesn't seem to effect it much, But once i get up to
around 80-100KM/H there is a random miss, almost seems like its loosing its
fuel.

When i went to go to school this morning, it was really really bad for some reason
worse since i got it, but then went i left to go to Tim's at lunch time it was fine.
Just getting worried if something big might let go in her.

Some say its a Coil, Spark Plugs or some other fire problem..

Anyone have similar problems?

Yep, I have an occasional miss in my 2001 4.0

I haven't looked into it. But from my experiences with this motor, if it hasn't stalled out completely. Just keep the fluid topped off and drive it.


Plugs, coils, and wires are cheap. Best replace them if you're worried.
