Sputtering and stalling
Asked by Rachael Oct 08, 2018 at 05:30 PM about the 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
So my jeep has been sputtering and stealing on me when I
idle at a stop sign. She has 148k miles on her and her
sensors have been taking a crap l have replaced some
already then she started this for some reason. Can anyone
help me out in figuring out what I can do to fix her? I just
paid her off in April.

NinjaXxChicken is absolutely right. Have it scanned for fault codes OR turn the key from Off to On three times quickly without starting the engine. Stop at "On" and the codes will display at the odometer. It will display "done" when it's done. If you see P0320 or P0340, those are failures of the crank or cam sensors respectively. Tell us what you find. Use good name brand sensors in places that are hard to reach...crankshaft sensor.

The code P0441 means a problem with a gas vapor leak in the fuel system. It could be simple like a loose or missing gasoline cap, or maybe a hose or canister has a hole in it. That's not too serious but have someone look and fix it and your Jeep should run better. I don't think it will quit running all together.
Ok, thank you so much for your help!❤
More than likely you have a leak detection pump issue.
Ours done this and it won't start PERIOD now..we took it to a shop, had a crank sensor and cam sensor and neither helped..even put coil pack on it. NOPE.
