So this evening I went to a pawn shop, and parked the Jeep. Came out about 15 minutes later, went to start the KJ, and it started/stumbled, then died. Did that about 4 times. Finally, I gave it some gas and started it, and all is fine. Is this a vapor lock thing? I've started it almost instantly after shutting it down before with no issues. Any ideas, or was this just a fluke? Thanks! |

Any codes? Do you have access to a OBD reader? |

No codes....today I added some STP stabilizer, and it seems ok. I think the gas stations switched to the winter blend, but we just had a warm front here in WI, so that explains it. Also started my LR3 today, it acted weird too, same gas... |

I hate these problems that come and go. If you got a OBD reader, hook it up and see if there is any history. |

Check the PCM for faulty fuel injector driver circuit. Unfortunately new PCM is the only fix if that's what it turns out to be. |
