The 4.0 (5 speed manual) is dying right after starting, just as I back out of the driveway. Once I restart and take off, everything is fine. It seems to want to die about 10 seconds after starting, the rpm's just drop to where it chugs and tries to die.
Just this week I had it in for some work, in an attempt to fix this. Here's what's been done:
New Autolite plugs
New PCV valve
New Fuel filter
Ignition wires checked, they're fine(replaced 1 yr ago)
MAS Air Flow cleaned.
Other stuff done:
replaced radiator hoses/flush and fill.
brakes checked and are fine
clutch checked, fluid fine.
2 light bulbs changed in dash.
Any ideas on what's causing it to die? Once I get going it's fine.
