Hi, I have wrote several times about this jeep and the problems i have been having. I have had it in the shop 3 times for about 3 months. i have replaced the following parts. CRANK Sensor,Pickup coil in distributer, wires plugs, cap roter, COIL, Coil modgel, forgive the spelling, and the last thing was the COMPUTER. The same old story, I drive it for about 2 weeks and then it will not start. It turns over but no fire. Got Gas No Spark. It is a 1990 Cherokee Limited, Very clean, Runs great when it runs. I bought for my son several months ago for $4,500, Thought I got a good deal. He turns 16 next week and I was hopeing I would have a dependable Jeep. i have had several Jeeps but none like this. I am done! If anyone wants to buy it please contact me. Ca, 1-530-633-0850. Will sell cheap!

There are 2 ignition relays under the hood in the fuse block. They usually never go bad but both of mine went bad all at once. Luckily, I have a good mechanic who was able to figure it out. The relays were about $15 each and simply plug in. Had to pay him for 2 hours labor to find it but well worth it.
