Jeep quits sometimes, and just wont start sometimes

Asked by Mark Aug 16, 2020 at 07:08 PM about the 1990 Jeep Wrangler STD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1990 Jeep Wrangler YJ. Sometimes it stops when I’m driving it, and
sometimes it will start again, and sometimes not. I’ve replaced the distributor,
coil and spark plug wires, but didn’t help. Today it started and ran good and
drive it a couple miles and shut it off. 10 minutes later I went to start it, and
wouldn’t start.

1 Answer

After replacing the distributor, the coil, the pcm, I figured it out. It was the ignition control module
