studdering 4.0 WTF.......!
I have a 2000 tj with the 4.0, and lately its been studdering and jerking under a hard pull. I changed the #1 o2 sensor, which helped for about 2 weeks. But now its doing it again. Doesn't matter if its on the highway or city. If I lug the motor, it will fall on its face. And I have no codes either. Any ideas. Or suggestions?.......

No dead cylinders i assume. How dirty was o2 sensor, and is new one dirtier than it seems it should be?

It doesn't have a distributor, just a big coil pack. Wouldn't that throw a code though for a misfire? Its fine if I wind it out, just cruising and rolling starts will make it jump.

My 98 will idle rough some times and I wiggle the injector wires and it clears up.
