Why does my 2001 Jeep Cherokee runs fine most of the time but has stranded me twice by stalling and wont start for over an hour then starts and runs fine for several days?

It is losing spark or fuel. Next time it dies check for spark. If it has spark it is probably a fuel issue. My guess it is a tired fuel pump.

My bet it is the spark plug wires or spark plugs or rotor cap if it has one. If the wires are going bad, they are worse "under load" (while driving).


How do you diagnose spark plug coil on 1996 Camry?

Swap the suspected coil with another cylinder that is firing correctly. If the original cylinder that was missing now runs fine and the other cylinder is now missing, you have determined the suspected coil is bad. Replace it with a new one.
