Hey man, thanks for this video. My 01 XJ went from running OK to completely stalling out at idle within a matter of a couple of days. About $75 later and she's running like new.

@@Screamingz1 I took the throttle body off and scrubbed it clean with carburetor - parts cleaner. I just purchased a new IAC from AutoZone, since my original IAC had never been cleaned and I wanted to start fresh. I now know this is basically a maintenance item to clean out periodically.

@@Electroskill nice man. I’m going to clean mine soon. It like to die after real light throttle sometimes. And idle funny. The iac may be playing a role in that. Hoping so at least.

@@Screamingz1 Sounds like that's likely the first thing to check. I can tell you this. I had noticed that my Jeep seemed to be idling a little rough with low RPM, but didn't have any problems otherwise. Then one day, I drove two miles away to my gym and it stalled while I was parking it. On the way home, I had to keep my foot on the gas to keep it from stalling. By the time I got home, it wouldn't stay on at all in idle. That's how fast the problem progressed. The entire throttle bottle was caked. I probably could have gotten by with the existing IAC after I cleaned everything, but since the sensor was already 21 years old and pretty cheap I just decided to replace it while I was in there. Good luck!

Excellent instructions, concise with good explanations. I like the colorful wall in the garage too!

I pulled mine off to clean it,because my engine stalls at idle sometimes and realized the O-ring on my IAC is missing. Is it neccesary to have that O-ring? all the auto stores near me say they dont have the right size for it

What brand besides mopar do you recommend for the IAC sensor on a Jeep Cherokee 1998? Great videos, man. Thank you.

Personally I would prioritize mopar since that’s what they were made to work the best with. Other than that you could look into crown automotive as an alternative. Thanks for watching!

This will be helpful as i was planning to do this to my XJ very soon! I have a little rough idling when i start it up but after its warm its better/ok. Also did you ever do the waterpump/thermostat video? I gotta do that as well.

So my jeep has sat for 3 years, i added 8 gallons of prem gas to her thinking that would help, however she died after driving 80 miles... i think i ran outta gas... get her to the side of the road, crank crank crank nothing... crank crank crank, she tries to start, dies. Got her running after adding 5 gallons of gas, however, when i give it gas she dies, let her idle for a bit, idles rough ( died sometimes). Now she wont start again, maybe i need to add like 10 gallons of gas with some cleaner? sounding like she's putting herself out... not sure, either clogged or not enough fuel. maybe u have an idea? im gonna test the fuel pressure today and see what she is at, i need 49, if she's good, gonna order all the sensors and change them out, clean the throttle body, add fuel and add techron concentrate to the tank
