when driving & outside temp gets past 75, engine shuts down at 35mph

Asked by jax1996 Jun 21, 2015 at 06:28 PM about the 1994 Jeep Cherokee

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My bro in law has a 1994 jeep cherokee and when summer comes and weather warms up, he will experience problems with auto shutting down especially if his speed gets below 35mph. He can let it set for 30 min or so and it will start and sometimes go without any more problem and sometimes it will only go a few miles and shut down againl

Possibly the crank shaft position sensor has a thermal issue. It could be other things too.

1995 Jeep Cherokee OverheatingHello all,Got a slight over-heating problem with my Jeep. Actually I noticed this from about 2 years ago and it's still the same today.When I'm stuck in bad traffic, or sit at a red light for too long, the temperature gauge would slowly creep upwards over the middle marker toward the third marker. I have not had it sitting idle for so long that it went into the last red region.But as soon as I start driving again, the temperature drops back down below just under the halfway mark.To me it sounds like an airflow problem, i.e. the engine is not getting enough airflow when it's sitting idle.Could this be the fan? Or a clogged or dirty radiator?I see two fans. The fan on the right always spins. The fan on the left does not spin when the engine is started. Are they both suppose to spin?Thanks in advance for any advice.Regards, 2 Answers
