it could possibly be the battery or the alternator check both. from the way it sounds that the alternator is going out and is making the battery work to hard and causeing it to go bad it could possibly be the battery or the alternator check both. from the way it sounds that the alternator is going out and is making the battery work to hard and causeing it to go bad

∙ 15y agoThis problem is almost assuredly fuel related and is one that I experienced with my 95 Grand Cherokee. Perhaps I got lucky but the first thing that I did was to take off the cover of the throttle body (your air cleaner tubing goes into the throttle body) and spray throttle body cleaner down into it.....a little bit to start, then start the car. It helps to have someone in the car with the gas pedal but you can also feather the gas via the linkage under the hood. The spray has a tendency to flood the engine. Several sprays of that worked the varnish and stickiness out of the butterfly valves and the fuel jets in the throttle and it still runs fine.

Your 94 jeep grand Cherokee limited idles fine then dies when you put it in reverse but not all the time it happens once then runs fine for a week what are you looking for?
the planetary gears are locking up in the tranny. your trans case could be getting hot ,over heating the tranny or your tranny could need flushing. this is serious i wouldn't drive until it is fixed if you like your jeep and don't want to spend alot of money.
1992 Jeep Cherokee starts but dies after a minute?
I just had the same problem with my '91 wrangler. It would sputter after it was warm and then not start once engine was off. I had to let it cool down for a good 2 hours. It was electrical. I needed a new crank shaft censor. After that she ran like an angel. I also got an injection flush. Good luck.
97 grand Cherokee ltd Starts but only runs for 2 seconds then dies?
You need to check the crankshaft position sensor located on the top of the intake near the rear of the back side of the altenator the wire is usually attached to the alternator bracket my 1997 grand caravan 3.3 did the same thing good luckAnswerIt sounds as if you have an ignition module going out, or a fuel pump/relay failing. This is very dangerous as the vehicle could stall out at any moment leading up to an accident. You should'nt drive this thing until the problem is fixed.Also be sure the fuel filter isn't plugged up, replace it.
Your 1998 jeep Cherokee dies when you turn right?
Check the PCM = Power Control Module aka Computer. This has happened to me in the past and what was happening was the wire harness that plugs into the PCM was binding up somewhere and pulling out from the PCM. In other words, No PCM - no run run.

Why does my 1999 ford windstar van starts fine but cuts right off?
Sounds like it has to do with the micro-chip in the key. Starts for about 3 seconds and dies. In 1999 Ford installed a micro-chip in the ignition key for Anti-theft purposes. If the chip isn't there, or is malfunctioning, the vehicle starts briefly and dies.

A 1999 Isuzu Rodeo that starts and then dies is not getting enough fuel, or the fuel mixture is off. It could be a clogged fuel line, dirty fuel filter or the fuel pump. It will need to be serviced.
